The BIG 4, an alliance between the cities of Commerce, Industry, Santa Fe Springs, and Vernon, announced on Monday a new partnership with the Supply Chain Federation, a national advocacy organization representing business and labor in goods movement, and CREDA SoCal to advance a regional approach to industrial development, workforce opportunity and supply-chain resilience across Southern California.
As its first major initiative, the partnership will host the second annual BIG 4 Summit in 2027, bringing together regional and national stakeholders to advance conversations around industrial development, supply-chain resilience, workforce opportunity, economic competitiveness, industrial land, infrastructure and public-private collaboration.
Since its formation in October 2025, the BIG 4 has established a unified voice for the shared interests and needs of its four cities and worked to expand business opportunities in the region through streamlined permitting, tax incentives, low-interest financing and reduced energy costs. In its first year, the BIG 4 has launched business incentives, convened the inaugural BIG 4 Summit, advocated for SB 1274 and closed its first joint economic development deal, keeping 80-year-old Juanita’s Foods and its manufacturing operations in Southern California.
