This resolution commends the Volvo Group for its significant contributions to the Commonwealth of Virginia, particularly its New River Valley plant, which has been a center for truck manufacturing for 50 years and is now the largest Volvo truck manufacturing facility globally. The resolution highlights Volvo's substantial investments in the region, its role as the largest private employer, and its efforts to support the local workforce by recruiting graduates and inspiring students in advanced manufacturing. Furthermore, it acknowledges Volvo's community engagement through initiatives like sponsoring student participation in the FIRST Tech Challenge and establishing the Volvo New River Valley Community Fund, and specifically commends the company for loaning its flagship Volvo VNL 860 truck to the American Revolution 250 Commission to tow its mobile museum, celebrating the Commonwealth's role in American history.
