Torrance is a premier city, balancing commercial, industrial and residential. Our mission is to help businesses grow; attract new investment; and improve the economic base for businesses of all types and sizes. Our Economic Development Team includes staff with the expertise to help with all aspects of doing business in the friendly City of Torrance.

Working internally and with local, regional and state partners, the City of Torrance Office of Economic Development can help with site selection, expedited permitting, and referrals to workforce development.

The Torrance Advantage includes a centralized permit center, competitive fees, no gross receipts tax, online project tracking, and the Torrance Police Business Watch Program. Our responsive, trained staff specialists can help any business already in the City, or those looking to expand or locate within Torrance.

Torrance is also close to airports, freeways and the ports of L.A. and Long Beach. The City’s regional transit center is set to open later this year. Torrance is home to major industry clusters, and has access to a wealth of skilled labor.

Year after year, Torrance is recognized as being one of the safest cities in the country, with highly ranked schools. The heart of the South Bay, Torrance is a hub for shopping, dining, craft breweries, cultural activities and recreation. Not to mention beautiful Torrance Beach!

Torrance has something for everyone, making it a great place to live, work, play and do business.
