Lomita is thrilled to announce the arrival of many new businesses significantly enhancing our local shopping landscape. Grocery Outlet celebrated its grand opening on June 13 and Target followed with its grand opening on July 17. These new additions mark a pivotal moment for our city, addressing long-standing concerns about the lack of nearby grocery and household goods options.
For a long time, residents have expressed their desire for a local grocery store, often having to travel to neighboring communities for their shopping needs. With the opening of Grocery Outlet and Target, Lomita residents now have convenient access to a wide range of groceries and household essentials right in their neighborhood.
The introduction of these stores is not just about convenience; it signifies a broader effort towards supporting economic development within our community. The presence of Grocery Outlet and Target is expected to boost local employment, stimulate economic activity and enhance the overall quality of life in Lomita.
“As new businesses in Lomita open their doors, we anticipate a positive ripple effect throughout our community, said City Manager Andrew Vialpando. “Together, we are building a stronger, more resilient Lomita for generations to come, while also updating our General Plan to ensure sustainable growth and development.”
We would like to extend our gratitude to the Lomita Chamber of Commerce for their unwavering support of the local business community. Their efforts have been instrumental in attracting new businesses to our city.
Lomita’s commitment to fostering a business-friendly environment has not gone unnoticed. In 2022, our city won the Eddy Award for the Most Business-Friendly City. This recognition underscores our dedication to creating a supportive and thriving business climate.
