If you know CROFTON, you know we love Harborfest!

And this year was one for the books, celebrating the 50th anniversary of Harborfest alongside the arrival of Sail250 Virginia in Hampton Roads!

CROFTON was proud to serve as a sponsor of Sail250 Virginia and to be part of an event that brought together historic tall ships and thousands of people who share a connection to the waterfront.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by to visit us. Whether it was to learn more about our work or just to help us celebrate, we appreciated your company!

It was an honor to be part of a historic day at NIT as we celebrated The Port of Virginia’s Deepest, Widest Channel Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony.

CROFTON cranes proudly displayed the American and Virginia flags during this morning’s event, marking a milestone that will benefit our port and maritime community for generations to come.

Completed in late February, the dredging deepened the channel to 55 feet, making the Port of Virginia the deepest port on the East Coast. With the final depth verification now complete, this transformational investment will help accommodate larger vessels and strengthen the Port of Virginia’s role as a critical gateway for global commerce.

We’re proud to call this port home and grateful to play even a small part in celebrating its continued growth.

CROFTON was proud to attend and support yesterday’s 2026 Virginia U.S. Navy Talent Pipeline Program Signing Day Ceremony in Norfolk, celebrating students who are taking the next step toward careers that support our nation’s Defense Industrial Base.

The Talent Pipeline Program continues to connect employers, educators and future workforce talent to strengthen critical industries and create opportunities for the next generation of skilled professionals. As a participating employer, CROFTON is committed to helping build sustainable workforce solutions that support both our industry and national security.

We’re grateful to be part of this collaborative effort and to stand alongside fellow employers dedicated to developing, attracting, and retaining the workforce that keeps our maritime and defense sectors strong.
