Why Nassau businesses work with us

Nassau County's population has grown by more than 28,000 residents since 2000, driven by its proximity to downtown Jacksonville and new industrial and commercial development.

The Nassau Economy, In Real Numbers
Nassau County's economy blends old and new industry in a way few Florida counties can match. Its forest products heritage runs deep — Rayonier, a major timber and land company, has long anchored the sector alongside WestRock and RYAM, which own and operate the county's two paper mills in Fernandina Beach — while tree farming continues as a real economic force through both small operations in the western county and Rayonier's large forested land holdings. At the same time, tourism has become the county's largest job creator, powered by the Ritz-Carlton Amelia Island and the Omni Amelia Island Resort, two of Northeast Florida's premier destination resorts drawing visitors well beyond the immediate region and supporting a wide network of smaller hospitality businesses around them.
By employment count, health care and social assistance, retail trade, and accommodation and food services lead the county's leading industries. The Port of Fernandina, a natural deep-water port with a 36-foot channel draft, supports steel, forest products, and containerized cargo shipping, backed by dual Class I rail service and strategic interstate access — infrastructure that's actively attracting new advanced manufacturing and logistics investment to the county alongside its established defense and healthcare sectors, and positioning Nassau as more than just a bedroom community for nearby Jacksonville.
Population growth has been among the fastest in Florida: Nassau County grew 14.65% between 2020 and 2024, the 53rd fastest-growing county in the entire US and 8th fastest in Florida specifically over that period. In 2023 alone, the county added nearly 5,000 new residents — its largest single-year population gain in 200 years — and state forecasters project Nassau will be Florida's sixth-fastest-growing county through 2035, reaching over 148,000 residents by then, up from an estimated 106,900 in 2025, a near-doubling over roughly a decade if the projection holds. That trajectory puts Nassau on a genuinely different growth path than most of Florida's long-established coastal counties.
What This Means If You're Marketing a Nassau Business
A county growing this fast — nearly 15% in four years, with a record single-year gain in 2023 — means a large and growing share of Nassau County's customer base has no established local vendor relationships yet. That's a real opportunity for a local business to become the default choice for new residents simply by being visible and credible in local search before competitors catch up to the pace of growth the county is currently experiencing and before the market matures further.
The tourism anchor of Amelia Island's luxury resorts (the Ritz-Carlton and Omni) also means Nassau has a genuinely upscale visitor and second-home market alongside its year-round resident base — businesses serving that segment (hospitality-adjacent retail, high-end services, real estate) are marketing into different price expectations and search behavior than a typical Florida county. Meanwhile, the Port of Fernandina and the county's forest products and manufacturing base create real B2B demand for logistics, industrial services, and trades supporting that side of the economy, giving Nassau businesses two genuinely distinct markets worth targeting separately: the tourism and luxury economy around Amelia Island, and the industrial and logistics economy around the port and paper mills further inland. A business trying to speak to both audiences with one generic message risks connecting fully with neither.
Nassau Marketing Questions We Get Asked
How fast is Nassau County growing?
Very fast for Florida — the county grew 14.65% between 2020 and 2024, the 53rd fastest-growing county in the entire US and the 8th fastest in Florida, and added nearly 5,000 new residents in 2023 alone, its largest single-year gain in 200 years.
What is Nassau County's largest job creator?
Tourism, powered primarily by two major Amelia Island resorts — the Ritz-Carlton and the Omni Amelia Island Resort — which together anchor the county's hospitality and luxury visitor economy and draw guests from well beyond Northeast Florida.
Are there manufacturing employers in Nassau County?
Yes — WestRock and RYAM own and operate the county's two paper mills in Fernandina Beach, and Rayonier anchors the county's long-standing forest products and timber industry through both farming operations and large forested land holdings.
What role does the Port of Fernandina play in Nassau County's economy?
A significant one — it's a natural deep-water port with a 36-foot channel draft handling steel, forest products, and containerized cargo, backed by dual Class I rail service, and it's actively attracting new manufacturing and logistics investment to the county.
How much is Nassau County projected to grow by 2035?
State forecasters project it will be Florida's sixth-fastest-growing county through 2035, reaching over 148,000 residents, up from an estimated 106,900 in 2025 — a projected 46.9% increase that would reshape the county significantly.
Is Nassau County an upscale or budget-focused market?
It has a genuinely upscale segment — the Ritz-Carlton and Omni Amelia Island Resort anchor a luxury tourism and second-home market with different price expectations than a typical Florida county, alongside its broader year-round resident economy.
Should a Nassau County business target both the tourism and industrial sides of the economy?
Only if it genuinely serves both — Nassau has two fairly distinct markets, the tourism and luxury economy around Amelia Island's resorts, and the industrial and logistics economy around the Port of Fernandina and paper mills, and most businesses fit more naturally into one.
What industries employ the most people in Nassau County?
Health care and social assistance, retail trade, and accommodation and food services are the county's leading employment sectors by headcount, reflecting both its year-round resident base and its tourism-driven hospitality economy.
How does Nassau County's growth compare to the rest of Florida?
It's among the fastest in the state — Nassau ranked 8th fastest-growing of Florida's 67 counties between 2020 and 2024, and state forecasters expect it to remain the state's sixth-fastest-growing county through 2035.
Does Nassau County's timber and paper industry still employ many people locally?
Yes — Rayonier's forestland holdings and tree-farming operations, along with the WestRock and RYAM paper mills in Fernandina Beach, keep forest products a genuine, ongoing local employer rather than a legacy industry that's faded out.
What industries employ the most people in Nassau County by headcount?
Health care and social assistance, retail trade, and accommodation and food services lead by employee count, even though tourism is described as the county's single largest job creator overall when factoring in indirect and resort-driven employment.
Is Nassau County more residential or commercial in character?
Increasingly both — its rapid population growth (14.65% from 2020 to 2024) is drawing residential development, while the Port of Fernandina and the county's forest-products base keep a genuine commercial and industrial side of the economy active alongside it.
