About the Location

The Tejon Ranch Commerce Center is located about an hour north of the San Fernando Valley, very near the geographic and population center of California, providing the ability to reach more than 40 million people with next-day delivery and 70 million in two days, with the shortest average distance to major population centers in the western U.S.

Land and leasing costs at the Tejon Ranch Commerce Center are much lower than other major commercial/industrial regions in California, often half the cost or more.

The Commerce Center’s location in unincorporated Kern County gives companies the opportunity to take advantage of the County’s long-held pro-business philosophy which manifests in fast turn-arounds for permits and inspections, as well as its successful "Advance Kern" economic incentive program. Kern County offers individually tailored performance-based tax revenue sharing opportunities with NO CAP on the amount of the incentive or the duration it’s offered.

"Tejon Ranch is in a location that's proven to be a superior value proposition for regional users who need to move goods throughout the Western United States.”

Rishi Thakkar, Director of Real Estate Investments, Dedeaux Properties

The Commerce Center sits on both sides of Interstate 5, giving distributors immediate access to the west coast’s principal north-south goods movement corridor, and an easy connection via State Highway 58 to both the I-15 and I-40 east-west corridors.

"The Tejon Ranch distribution center is strategically located to serve our supply chain needs as we continue to expand westward. From its central location, our supply chain team can deliver goods to stores in northern and southern California in a day.”

John Flanigan, Executive Vice President of Global Supply Chain, Dollar General

"With its excellent accessibility to major highways and airports, TRCC’s location will ensure the rapid delivery of Cat parts to dealers and customers.”
