Health Diagnostic Laboratory Inc. Expansion in BioTech Park Bringing 653 New Jobs

Richmond Mayor Dwight C. Jones announced today a planned expansion by Health Diagnostic Laboratory Inc. that would bring $68.5 million in capital investment and 653 new jobs to the Virginia BioTechnology Research Park. The health-management company started in 2009 and has experienced such rapid growth that it realized in September that it would need to relocate or expand its 30,000 square-foot presence in the downtown research park, said Tonya Mallory, the company's president and chief executive officer. The company decided to remain in Richmond at the BioTech park in light of its proximity and existing relationships with VCU Medical Center.
