SouthBay Transport Participates in Southern California Business Development Conference

On Friday September 29th, SouthBay Transport, Inc. had the honor to participate in the Southern California Business Development Conference (SCBDC) hosted by the Regional Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (RHCC). The RHCC was founded in 2000 when business leaders noticed the potential that the Hispanic business community held in the Southern California region. Every year the RHCC hosts the SCBDC with the purpose to connect community leaders, government officials and businesses.

This year SouthBay Transport’s CEO George BenHeretz was invited to speak on the Super Star Lunch Panel. During this panel, business executives discuss their path to success. Along with BenHeretz on the Panel were Betty Porto, from Porto’s Bakery, Vanessa Faggiolly, from Amerisal Foods, Liliana Aide Monge from Sabio, Rae Boone from Blue Vista Company and Eric Mendoza from RDI Engineering. An advice that BenHeretz gave to the audience is that as an entrepreneur one must always believe in themselves, no matter how many times you want to give up, just keep going.

Another benefit of attending the SCBDC is that suppliers have the opportunity to meet with buyers to create business partnerships. Buyers from the City of Long Beach, Los Angeles World Airports, Metro and more were in attendance! Over all the conference served as a great business networking opportunity for SouthBay Transport and all leaders in attendance. Thank you to Sandy Cajas and the Regional Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.
