Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I go if I am not located in Los Angeles County or Ventura County?

There are two other MBEC’s in California to service minority businesses outside of Los Angeles County and Ventura County:

  • Inland Empire MBEC servicing the counties of San Bernardino, Riverside, and Orange County, located at 4053 Chestnut Street, Riverside, CA, 92501, Telephone number (323) 343-9477.
  • Central/Northern California MBEC, servicing the areas of Central and Northern California, located at 300 Frank Ogawa Bldg., Suite 210, Oakland, CA, 94612.

In special circumstances, and on a case-by-case basis, the MBEC may be able to request approval from the MBDA to assist an otherwise eligible firm that is located outside of the Los Angeles MBEC's target area.
