About ERI Group

ERI Group is a privately held industrial real estate and environmental services company based in Bethesda, Maryland. We acquire rail-served sites, permit and build the infrastructure they need, and operate them for the long term.

Our work sits where waste, rail and land meet: unloading material from rail, storing and recovering it under state and federal permits, and bringing closed or underused industrial properties back into use. We operate in West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina and Maryland.
