Industry Hills Expo Center

What Industry Hills Expo Center does

Industry Hills Expo Center is a privately held, multipurpose event venue business that has operated continuously since 1981 from a 125-acre gated hilltop campus at 16200 Temple Avenue in City of Industry, California. The asset is productized as four distinct revenue-generating venues: The Grand Arena (a 45,000 sq. ft. all-weather enclosed structure seating 3,500+ spectators with a 10,000-watt JBL/QSC sound system, four 70-foot projector screens, and livestock handling infrastructure for rodeos and equestrian events), The Pavilion (a 10,000 sq. ft. indoor space for up to 500 guests with bi-amped JBL/QSC audio), The Avalon Room (an intimate 100-guest function space with adjoining lawn), and an On Location Filming service positioned inside the LA 30-mile studio zone.

The company serves a diversified mix of private event hosts (weddings, birthdays, anniversaries), corporate clients (meetings, seminars, conferences), sporting event organizers (rodeos, motocross, equestrian shows), film and TV production companies (historical engagements include CNBC, Syfy, Fox, A&E, NBC, and Univision Productions), festival organizers, and non-profits. Revenue is generated through one-time venue rental fees with required deposits, exclusive on-site beverage sales, catering and bar service commissions, and film-location licensing. Pricing is opaque and quote-based, distributed exclusively through direct channels: the company website, organic social media (Facebook, X, Instagram), and a phone-based sales team at (626) 330-0324.

Operations are notably lean, with only 8 in-house employees and no disclosed parent company, private equity sponsor, or institutional investor. The business shows no funding activity, no acquisitions, no partnerships, no management team listings, and no technology or AI infrastructure beyond standard web and audio-visual equipment. The website and social presence indicate the business is actively soliciting bookings, with the Pavilion reportedly booked nearly a year in advance.
