About Quantico Business Center
The Quantico Businecc Center (QBC) is a HUBZone Incubator and offers startups and small businesses an ideal platform for launching, developing, and growing your business. Starting a new business or expanding an existing one can be expensive and full of challenges for the entrepreneur.

QBC is proud to become part of the tradition of service that Quantico emphasizes. Located in the heart of Quantico, QBC provides affordable shared office space and a dedicated workforce. The office address is a qualified HUBZone as designated by the US Small Business Administration (SBA). We are conveniently located right on the Marine Corps Base (MCB) Quantico, next to the Virginia Railway Express (VRE) station and about a 35-minute drive to Washington, DC. More on office space.
QBC acts as a Professional Employer Organization (PEO) to provide comprehensive Human Resource (HR) services so that you can focus on growing your business. QBC works exclusively with the military families living on the Marine Base and hires experienced and skilled employees to support our small business members. QBC provides a full range of HR services including hiring HUBZone qualified employees, professional resume, time keeping, bi-weekly payroll, and payroll reports. More on HR services.
What is a HUBZone?
HUBZone stands for Historically Underutilized Business Zone. Businesses located in HUBZones are eligible for unique support programs through the Small Business Administration. Quantico Business Center can help you get a business address inside the HUBZone, so you’ll be eligible for these programs. More on HUBZones on the SBA website.
Our Core Values
Our Members Come First
We support the entrepreneurs taking all the risk in pursuit of their dreams. Their business is our business, and it is our role to provide the right resources to help them grow responsibly and create a lasting impact for the community.
We Value Military Families
We stand behind service members and their families. Being located right on the Marine Corps Base, we have “boots on the ground” with military families and understand better than anyone that “military families serve, too.” Our mission is to provide military family members with meaningful employment and to better contribute to their family’s financial security.
We Provide Affordable Services to Our Members
We understand that our members are start-ups and small businesses driven by entrepreneurial spirit. Providing shared office space and shared employees help lower the costs of business operations helping the business owner invest their limited resources for other strategic business activities.
We Raise the Bar
We hold our staff, our members and our program to high standards of performance and quality in order to be recognized as a leader within the entrepreneurial community. The QBC name, brand and incubation program should be synonymous with excellence.
