Key Employers
Vera Bradley
Vera Bradley was founded in 1982 by friends Barbara Bradley Baekgaard and Patricia R. Miller, who were inspired to create colorful, patterned luggage after noticing a lack of feminine travel gear at an airport. What started as a small operation on a basement ping pong table in Northeast Indiana quickly evolved into a global lifestyle brand synonymous with quilted cotton bags and vibrant floral prints.
Today, Vera Bradley's corporate headquarters in Roanoke, IN drives regional opportunities in fashion, marketing, e-commerce, and logistics.
