Compton has approved a partnership with The Natelson Dale Group to create a new Economic Development Strategic Plan aimed at strengthening the business climate, revitalizing key corridors, expanding opportunities for small and minority-owned businesses, improving permitting, increasing access to grants, and supporting startups. The plan positions Compton for job growth, investment, and long-term economic revitalization.

The Compton Chamber, St. James AME Church, and For the Love of Our Veterans unite to power the Compton Food Pantry—serving the community nonstop since the pandemic. With a permanent home, upgraded facilities, and dedicated volunteers, we continue delivering food to families, seniors, and disabled residents thanks to generous donors and partners.

The Compton Chamber of Commerce proudly welcomes ZenBusiness, a national leader in small business formation and growth tools. Their affordable, all-in-one platform helps entrepreneurs, freelancers, and side-gig earners easily start and manage their businesses—bringing new opportunities for Compton’s growing community of creators and doers.
