Oregon Opportunity Profile
Hermiston has been the right place for the right times. Located
in a relatively dry section of the
state of Oregon, positioned between the Cascade Mountains to
the west and the Blue Mountains
to the East, Hermiston is placed in a unique geographical area
that offers an extended growing season and a variety of agricultural
crops and products. The immediate Hermiston area has
been able to diversify its economy with food processing, cold
storage and warehousing and distribution facilities. |
Well Positioned and Located:
You’ll find us at the junction of two interstate freeway systems as well as a major north-south arterial, we are located within easy driving distances of Spokane, Boise, Seattle and Portland as well as cities in Montana, Utah, Wyoming, California and British Columbia. We are also home to

freeways, Rail and River systems we are based on the information super highway with a
redundant fiber optic communications system with connectivity to both Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington telecommunication hubs.
Abundant Life:
Just as we are the right place for a diversity of business, we are the right place for a diversity
of people and interests. We offer an abundance of outdoor, civic and cultural activities that
make our community very saleable to employees and management alike. Striving for a better
future, we are the future of Eastern Oregon.
