lOOK BACK, lOOKiNg fORWARd A Conversation with Murray Fischer. By Ed Moy For 90 years the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce has played a vital role in the development of the City of Beverly Hills, helping to shape the community and business landscape while promoting the world-renowned brand known as “Beverly Hills” and its crown jewel, the “Golden Triangle.” “The Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce has always been the premiere go-to organization in the City of Beverly Hills,” says attorney Murray Fischer, who has served on the Chamber’s Board of Directors since the mid-1980s. “Today, it is a dynamic organization that businesses turn to for help with their problems or when starting a new business.” Fischer also helped spearhead the formation of the Chamber’s prestigious Economic Development Council, which was established to help retain businesses in the City, but has since expanded to promote new businesses by connecting leaders of the Beverly Hills business community with representatives of the Mayor’s office, city officials, and department staff. “There’s been a wonderful relationship created through the municipal government and the Chamber to work together to promote the positive aspects of business in the City of Beverly Hills,” said Fischer. Now, as the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce celebrates its 90th anniversary, the organization is determined to continue a tradition of innovation through economic development through networking and high profile signature events for its membership and the general public. The Chamber’s events help connect companies to a vast array of businesses in the community, build professional development and inform members about the latest economic news and government issues. “The Chamber is dedicated to supporting all businesses in the City of Beverly Hills,” Fischer said. “They provide information with respect to doing business in the city, including supporting businesses in the city, creating advertising and networking opportunities, and meeting with the mayor. The Chamber presents valuable opportunities for businesses to expand and to be a part of the Beverly Hills community.”

The Beverly Hills Speedway, a 1.25 mile wood oval track was built at a cost of $500,000 on the south side of Wilshire Boulevard between Beverly Drive on the east and Lasky Drive on the west in Beverly Hills, was opened.

The population in 1920 was 672; in 1924, it was 5,000; by 1930, it was 17,429.


The Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce


LOOK BACK, LOOKING FORWARD

IN THE BEGINNING… Born from a need to support the city’s population growth during the early 1920s, the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce convened its first meeting on May 1, 1923 to discuss the need for a new City Hall and library, a telegraph office, improved street signs and more city parks. They also discussed the need to improve the transportation system, mail service and school facilities. At their second meeting formal articles of incorporation were drafted and approved. The members then petitioned the State of California, requesting that the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce be incorporated “to promote the economic, commercial, industrial, civic and social welfare of the people of the City of Beverly Hills and vicinity.” When the petition was accepted on July 20, 1923, the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce was officially born. One of the Chamber’s first goals was the widening of Wilshire Boulevard and the extension of bus service from Downtown to Beverly Hills. A Chamber-sponsored parade “The Evolution of Transportation” inaugurated the new service in 1928. The city thrived. By 1930 the population had risen to almost 17,500. And in 1932 the wisecracking star of stage, screen and radio, Will Rogers, was appointed the city’s first honorary mayor. The same year construction began on the new Beverly Hills City Hall. Later the Chamber formed an alliance with Rogers to secure a post office grant for the city, along with a federal appropriation of $300,000, to build a new post office. An elaborate dedication ceremony sponsored by the Chamber celebrated the completion of the project on April 28, 1934. During the dark days of the Depression the Chamber established an Unemployment Bureau, which provided jobs, food and clothing to those in need. It also provided office

space for the National Recovery Association and Federal Housing Administration. The Chamber also did its part during World War II by sponsoring Red Cross drives and a “Buy a Bomber” campaign in support of the war effort. Victory Gardens were planted at every school in the city and residents were encouraged to grow and harvest their own vegetables. In the years that followed the end of the war Beverly Hills continued to develop. And in 1948 the Chamber celebrated its 25th anniversary by announcing its “Forward Beverly Hills” program designed to encourage the strong spirit of community cooperation that existed in Beverly Hills. The program’s success led to the October 1948 groundbreaking for the Chamber of Commerce building on the newly purchased lot at 239 South Beverly Drive. As business boomed, traffic became a major concern within the rapidly growing business district of Beverly Hills. In response the Chamber called for one-way traffic to be established along Brighton Way and left turn lanes were added along South Santa Monica Boulevard. The Chamber also pushed for more bus service along the southern portion of the city’s business district and “The Golden Triangle,” with Rodeo Drive at its heart, was marketed to the World as the shopping destination of a lifetime. One of the Chamber’s key innovations during the 1980s was the creation of a Government Affairs Committee to address issues impacting the local business community and business climate, including urban planning, transportation, real estate development, zoning, taxes, regulatory and operational concerns. “The Chamber did not have a Government Affairs department when I started,” Fischer recalled. “Over the years, we created it primarily to help businesses having a difficult time dealing with City government, such as

getting permits and opening new businesses in the city. We try to be helpful with government affairs and assist our members to effectively deal with the city and solve their immediate problems. “We’ve seen many positive results over the years,” he added. “Businesses have learned more about potential legislation and dealt more effectively with the planning and building departments, while learning about code enforcement issues.” Additionally, Fischer noted, the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce presents educational and professional development workshops throughout the year to help introduce members to new ways of growing their business, spotlighting trends, increasing business bottom line, and improving expertise. Some past workshop topics have included risk management, human resources, social media, and writing press releases. “We’ve supported schools through our Presidential Classroom Program and career day events, and worked with the Rotary Club on business opportunities. Through the years, we have participated in many events including Easter parades, Christmas tree lightings, and other special events, all for our businesses to promote within the City of Beverly Hills.” CURRENTLY, THE CHAMBER’S SIGNATURE PROGRAMS, EDUCATIONAL EVENTS AND NETWORKING EVENTS INCLUDE: EVENING WITH THE MAYOR: The “Evening” program features the Mayor’s formal State of the City address. The Mayor addresses topics and issues that are foremost to Beverly Hills and allow a true conversation to take place between the businesses, residents and political leadership of our City.

THE EDELWEISS CHOCOLATE FACTORY a Beverly Hills Sweet Spot

The year was 1942 and America had been plunged into the conflict of World War II. So, perhaps Grace Wilcox Young’s idea was to provide a little sweetness with the bitterness when she opened the Candy Roundup in Beverly Hills. And it didn’t take long for the shop to become a local favorite renowned for its handmade chocolates and Grace’s special “top secret” recipe for homemade marshmallow. Originally located on S. Beverly Drive and later at 444 N. Canon Drive, the shop remained under Grace Wilcox’s control for 30 years. Then its ownership passed to a Swiss chocolate master, who changed the name to the Edelweiss Chocolate Factory. For 70 years it has been a Beverly Hills landmark offering a vast array of bite-size delights and colorfully packaged confections. The current owners are Steve and Madlen zahir who purchased the shop in 2000 determined to carry on the tradition of making the finest candy by hand using the same machinery that Grace Wilcox Young installed in her original store. “Everything is made from scratch. We roast our own chocolate, we cut them and decorate them by hand,” says Madlen proudly. “Other companies make big batches of chocolate and store them in freezers. We don’t even have a freezer. We make

everything by hand. That is our tradition, and we are still using the original 1942 equipment.” The moment you open the door of the Edelweiss Candy Kitchen, the wafting smell of chocolate and the dazzling rows of colorfully decorated candy elates your senses. “We make 85 different chocolates, all by hand. We supply candy for all types of occasions, whether it’s for weddings, the film industry or to anyone who comes into our store looking for a treat.” Another source of pride, Madlen says, is the fact that the shop and its vintage machinery inspired one of the most famous episodes of “I Love Lucy,” a scene in which Lucy and Ethel find themselves working on a chocolate assembly line trying desperately to do their work while secretly devouring as much candy as possible! “We’ve been doing this for now for 12 years,” says Madlen with a smile of delight, “and we’re still learning.” Steve and Madlen are also dedicated members of the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce. “We are very supportive of the Chamber because it has helped us so much to introduce ourselves to the community,” says Steve. “It helps us run our business better.” edelweiss chocolate factory 444 N. canon dr.

It’s the first real of real estate— residential and commercial. Where you live and where you set up your business says a lot about who you are and the type of business you operate. In this regard, Beverly Hills offers a wide variety of choices, many more than the first-time visitor to the city might imagine.

The Golden Triangle

The crown jewel of Beverly Hills is the area bordered by Wilshire Blvd., Santa Monica Blvd. and N. Doheny Drive known simply as the “Golden Triangle.” It is a world destination unto itself. And at the heart of the Golden Triangle is its crown jewel, Rodeo Drive. The fact that a business is located on Rodeo Drive means its products and service represent the ultimate in style and sophistication, and, yes, price tags. Chris George is the manager of Van Cleef & Arpels, whose elegant establishment has been a Rodeo Drive landmark at for more than 30 years. But in an effort to present a fresh look, says manager Chris George, Van Cleef & Arpels has recently completed a multi-million dollar remodeling of its Beverly Hills flagship store.

South Beverly Drive Head south just a few blocks to South Beverly Drive and the mood is completely different. The atmosphere of this Beverly Hills neighborhood is decidedly laid back, to comfortable and casual as patrons sit down at one of the many eateries or buy items from one the small boutique stores. A new destination of choice for those interested in the martial arts, is Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Academy at 324 South Beverly Drive. Since 1925, over 40 members of the Gracie Family have dedicated their lives to developing the most effective system of self-defense the world has ever known. Today, the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Academy is a global organization which stands alone in its ability to empower anyone -- regardless of age, gender, or athletic ability -- using the time-tested techniques and teaching methods perfected over the last century. Under the leadership of Casey Lum, the academy has established itself as a vital new member of the Beverly Hills, and S. Beverly Drive community.

South Robertson Blvd For the residents of what is commonly referred to as “the Flats,” Beverly Hills means something entirely different from the high-end name brands of Rodeo Drive or even the busy commercial flow of S. Beverly Drive. South Robertson is all about large over-hanging tree-lined sidewalks, small personally owned businesses, repeat clients, coming and going foot traffic and a more. “If there is an identity to South Robertson, it’s trendier,” says Karen Brando of Flowers by Michael. “It’s younger. It’s more diverse. We’re very happy here.” La Cienega’s Restaurant Row La Cienega Blvd. marks the eastern most boundary of Beverly Hills, and the roadway between Wilshire and Burton Way has long been known as “Restaurant Row.” And while many of the restaurants that once lined the street have come and gone, one has steadfastly remained— Lawry’s The Prime Rib at 100 N. La Cienega. Lawry’s describes itself as, “a place of grand style, classic elegance, luxurious comfort

Beverly Hil Two new stars will be lighting up the nightlife of Beverly Hills this year. One is the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, a two-theater complex designed to showcase the full range of artistic expression. The other is H.O.M.E. (the House of Music and Entertainment), a new destination for fine food, music and drink devoted to bringing the world of jazz to Beverly Hills.

Curtain Up!

Construction of the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts (which is due to open in December) is well under way transforming the block between big and little Santa Monica Blvd., N. Canon Drive and N. Crescent Drive, (formerly occupied by the venerable old Beverly Hills Post Office) into a shining new Mecca for the performing arts. The prime architectural features of the Post Office (which is designated as an historic landmark) will remain, while the former mail sorting area is being transformed into a flexible 150-seat Studio Theater. There will also be three classrooms

jewel of the Center, however, will be the new 500-seat, state-of-theart Goldsmith Theater, whose thematic exterior surface will represent thousands of folded mailing envelopes. The grounds will feature a sunken sculpture garden, elegant landscaping and a promenade terrace. “Beverly Hills has long been a vibrant hub of world-class dining and shopping. The Annenberg will add a vibrant, unique cultural destination to the heart of this legendary city,” said Lou Moore, executive director of the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts. “In addition to the finest theater, music and dance, we also will present professional theater productions for young audiences as well as launch a theater school for young people.”

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

It Don’t Mean a Thing if it Ain’t Got that Swing Jazz has long been a part of the musical fabric of Los Angeles going back to the days when big band musicians like Benny Goodman would headline at the Coconut Grove and you could groove to the bee-bop beat of Dizzy Gillespie at Shelly’s Mannehole. Now there’s H.O.M.E. the House of Music & Entertainment in Beverly Hills located at 430 N. Camden Drive, a place, according to owner/manager Dennis Anthony, where you can count on hearing the best the world of

jazz has to offer while dining on fine cuisine and sipping your favorite cocktails— it’s syncopated and it’s sophisticated. The concept of H.O.M.E says Anthony is to combine a fine dining experience and a jazz concert (two sets a night). “Your dining experience (prepared by Chef Shawn Davis) will begin as soon as you get here,” he explains. “Dinner service starts at 6:00 and by 7:30 you should be on to coffee and dessert. Because when the show starts and it’s time to enjoy the music, to groove not smooze. This is jazz club. This place swings. The

edUCAtiON The roots of public education in Beverly Hills run deep, all the way back to 1887 when the Coldwater schoolhouse (near the corner of Sunset Boulevard and Coldwater Canyon) welcomed its first pupils— most of whom arrived by buggy or on horseback. The Beverly Hills Unified School District has come a long way since then. It now includes six schools: Hawthorne (a direct descendent of the old Coldwater schoolhouse), El Rodeo, Horace Mann, Beverly Vista, Moreno High School, and Beverly Hills High School, which opened its doors to students on July 1, 1935. The pioneering class of 1887 consisted of 35 students, according to Robert Anderson’s historical article written for the Beverly Hills Currier. Today the Beverly Hills Unified School District’s combined enrollment is approaching 5,000 students. And in addition to its public schools the city is home to several private educational institutions, both religious-based and non-secular. Due to the downturn in the economy and slashes to education funding, the recent years have been challenging for public and private schools alike. But as Dr. Gary W. Woods (Superintendent of the Beverly Hills United School District) and Arlene Martus (director and principal of the private Page School) point out, there are many positive trends as well. “There is enough negativity out there state-wide right now concerning budgets,” Dr. Woods points out. “But every chance we get we should be taking stock of what we’re doing well.

Woods, a ranking of 900 (or above) places a school in a very prestigious grouping. “We have two schools in “The 900 Club,” Horace Mann, which joined for the first time this year, along with Beverly Vista and Hawthorn. El Rodeo is at 899. Our other schools are at a level of 892 and we are climbing steadily.” And what about at the high school level? “High schools bring a whole other set of factors into the calculation,” Dr. Woods explains. “For a high school to achieve a level of 900 is even more unique. Last year Beverly Hills High School gained 30 points to its ranking, and we are shooting for 900.” According to Dr. Woods, the public schools of Beverly Hills are well aware of the challenging employment picture that faces future

First of all, every year our Beverly Hills public schools are ranked by the state of California, and we have remained in the top 7% of all those schools for the past seven years.

And the schools of Beverly Hills are community schools,” Dr. Woods affirms. Based on systematic testing, says Dr. 22 I

graduates. The school system’s response, he explains, is a two-tier structure of college track and career-oriented classes. “There is a huge emphasis today on preparing students to be career-ready. We have instituted a very robust Regional Occupation Program that is funded by the county. It include courses such as culinary arts and medical sciences that can lead toward careers in nursing, medical technology or medical school. For this program we are partnering with the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. ROP functions as a career-readiness component to our academic program, STEAM, which emphasizes Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics.” The school district, says Dr. Woods, recognizes that students are no longer just competing for jobs with their fellow Americans— they are competing against students around the world! As a result the public schools of Beverly Hills are moving toward a new set of standards that, according to Dr. Woods, are more “internationally based.” “They are called the Common Core Standards, and will soon become the new measurement of a school’s achievement.” Many of the challenges that face the public schools are also being faced by the private schools of Beverly Hills, says Page School director and principal, Arlene Martus. “Because we are a private school we can

offer a structured academic environment based on smaller classes, longer school days and therefore, more individual attention from teachers. This shows in our test scores, where our students score, on the average, a year ahead of their grade level.” The Page Schools have been in operation for more than 100 years. “This is the beginning of my fifth year in Beverly Hills, but I have been an educator with the Page Schools for 27 years.” Martus explained. “Like all schools we faced a real crisis because of the economy. Two years ago our budget for staff took a big hit and our enrolment dropped to 32 students. That’s when we looked at the big picture and decided to completely revamp our campus. Today our student enrolment is up to 115.

One of the reasons is that we have succeeded has been our response to the financial needs of our parents. Our tuition is pretty steep, so we have begun to offer adjustable tuition, which is similar to the type of financial aid packages that are offered by private schools and colleges.” But ultimately, says Martus, education is a

joint enterprise. “I believe in every school the parents have to be partners. In order for a child to be successful we have to work together. If schools do their part and parents do their part, children will succeed. It’s all about working together and being connected.”

“We have two schools in “The 900 Club,” Horace Mann, which joined for the first time this year, along with Beverly Vista and Hawthorn. El Rodeo is at 899. Our other schools are at a level of 892 and we are climbing steadily.”

As I See It

Some observations on where we are, how we got here, and where we’re going, from Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce Executive Director, Alexander Stettinski. Alexander Stettinski, the Executive Director of the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce, is enjoying one of those rare moments of calm that can appear like an oasis in the middle of a busy day. A smile crosses his face as he admires the Chamber’s new second floor office space (at the corner of Little Santa Monica Blvd. and Canon Drive) with its sleek modern lines, elegant appointments, historic photographs and panoramic views that include the gilded spire of City Hall and rising construction of the Annenberg Performing Arts Center. The new offices, Stettinski says as we sit down for conversation, also a visually powerful metaphor appropriate for the beginning of a new era in the Chamber’s history. This year the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce is celebrating its 90 anniversary. Its articles of confederation were confirmed by the State of California on July 20, 1923. The city itself had been incorporated in January 1914. “Ever since its creation the Chamber has been a prominent organization within the city,” Stettinski explains. “It was involved in the creation of City Hall and even helped design and layout the city. Many of its prominent members were city officials. The way people do business today still requires the Chamber of Commerce to be a business association with close ties to city government.” But, as Stettinski points out, the world has changed a great deal since the early 1920s when America was still experimenting with Prohibition, women achieved the right to vote, and the infamous trade that sent Babe Ruth from the Boston Red Sox to the New York Yankees.

BUSINESS

THE BEVERLY HILLS HOTEL

Beverly Hills and its luxurious hotel. The rest, as they say, is history, including the contribution made by the African American architect, Paul Williams, who in 1948 added the hotel’s crescent wing and introduced its world-famous pink exterior. And what a history it’s been, featuring the most remarkable cast of characters imaginable, from the glamour of Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe, to the scandals surrounding its one-time owner Ivan Boesky and his young partner in crime, Michael Milken. As Warren Beatty expressed it in a commemorative film made for the hotel’s 100th birthday, “I’ve been hanging out in the Polo Lounge for 53 years, and I could tell you stories about pretty much every booth in the whole place.” Today the hotel is part of the Dorchester Collection and is managed under the observant eye of Edward Mady. “The Dorchester Collection is a management company that oversees a small group of iconic hotels situated in London, Paris, Milan, Geneva and Los Angeles. Each has its own individual identity and luxurious facilities,” he says. “Understanding the Beverly Hills Hotel’s history and its importance in the community is a prime concern. Our legendary profile in Beverly Hills is a privilege we’re proud to be part of. The hotel was here two years before the city was incorporated. So we are as much a part of Beverly Hills as Beverly Hills is part of the hotel. We see ourselves as the living room for the community.” Or, as the great Lauren Bacall so sweetly put it, “Okay. Maybe it’s just a hotel, but for so many of us it’s more. It’s a tradition worth preserving.”

There is no building in Los Angeles that has more iconic status, style and star-studded glamour than the Beverly Hills Hotel. The “Pink Palace” with its glistening swimming pool, luxurious cabanas and Hollywood deal-making Mecca, the Polo Lounge, has personified Beverly Hills, almost before there was a Beverly Hills. “Beverly Hills first went on the real estate market in 1906,” recalls Beverly Hills Hotel historian, Robert Anderson. “At that point only six houses had been built and sold. It wasn’t until the Beverly Hills Hotel opened in May of 1912 that there was some place to go to and stay in Beverly Hills. Where the hotel is now was basically a desert!” As the Los Angeles Times proclaimed on the front page of its May 14, 1911 edition, Beverly Hotel to Be Wonder of Southland Magnificent Mission Hostelry Half Way Between the City and the Ocean to Rival Greatest Tourist Resorts in the United States. The creation of a luxury hotel (that also offered complimentary golf at the recently opened Los Angeles Country Club) transformed Beverly Hills into a tourist destination. The hotel maintained its own stables for horseback riding, a bowling alley, and a school on the premises that taught grades from kindergarten through 12th grade. As Robert Anderson (whose great grandmother was the hotel’s first manager) puts it, “It was a luxury resort hotel where kids were totally taken care of so their parents could party.” It wasn’t long before the Hollywood crowd, beginning with Douglas Fairbanks, Mary Pickford and Will Rogers discovered

“Today things are really changing and shifting. Every Chamber of Commerce is being forced to become more current, more responsive, more aggressive and active with its members. This represents a significant change from the past when the Chamber was more strictly a politically involved business advocacy group. Today marketing has become an important part of our activities. At the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce we are not just connecting businesses with other businesses and city government, we’re specifically connecting businesses with consumers.” With its glamorous array of shops including Channel, Gucci, Armani, Cartier etc, it’s not surprising that when people think of Beverly Hills they tend to think of the Golden Triangle. The goal of the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce, Stettinski says, is to promote, maintain and protect the luster of the Triangle, while at the same time reaching out to all of the diverse residents and businesses that make up the community of Beverly Hills— from the villas in the hills to the homeowners and apartment renters in lowland region known as “the Flats;” from the high-end automotive showrooms of Wilshire and Beverly Boulevard to the

FRANCIS-ORR STATIONERY COMPANY But, as Gregory Guss points out, the basic nature of Francis-Orr has never changed. “The legacy of Clark Gable Francis-Orr has always Coat of Arms been based around customer service and the family of people that work for us. I think it is that combination that has allowed us to survive.” The emphasis at Francis-Orr, he points out, is not on maintaining a flashy look or spending millions of dollars on highprofile marketing campaigns. Instead, the emphasis, says Guss with obvious pride, is on providing the type of service that brings patrons back again and again. “It’s not unusual,” he says, “for a couple to come in to order invitations for their wedding and tell us their parents had their invitations printed her, and their parents had theirs printed here too. That’s a very special type of loyalty.” Throughout its history Francis-Orr has maintained a star-studded clientele that including such Hollywood legends as Clark Gable, Barbara Stanwyck and Joan Crawford. But, as Guss is quick to point out, the level of service Francis-Orr provides is the same for everyone. “It doesn’t matter whether a person is a movie star, a CEO or a member of our local community, the level of service and respect they receive will always be exactly the same— courteous and respectful.

Entering Francis-Orr Stationery Company at 320 N. Camden Drive is like transporting yourself to a different time. And although owner, Gregory Guss, and his cordial staff recognize the technological advances in high speed communication, they take pride in offering a personal brand of service and a line of products that celebrate the era of the hand-written note, card or letter, the supple feel of a superbly crafted fountain pen, and the luxurious look of a perfectly printed invitation. Founded in Beverly Hills in 1924 by a pair of enterprising women: Estella Francis and Estelle Orr, the shop (which became a member of the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce that same year) has had several locations over the years. According to Gregory Guss (whose family has run Francis-Orr since 1961) the shop first opened on the then 9000 block of Little Santa Monica Blvd. In the 1930s it moved to Beverly Drive, in the 1940s to the 300 block of Rodeo Drive, and then in the 1970s to its current residence on Camden Drive.

community through our monthly subscriber newsletter and on our website, Beverlyhillschamber.com. The life-blood of every Chamber of Commerce, as Stettinski well knows, is its members. “I am very pleased that our membership in growing— slowly, but it is growing. We are experiencing an upward trend in our membership as well as the size of the subscriber base for the newsletter. We want people to discard that old image of the Chamber of Commerce. We’re more with it and in tune with the times than you might think.” Now 50, Stettinski was born in Geneva, Switzerland. “My mom was German and my father was Italian. I came to America to attend college at UC Berkeley and never looked back. My last post before joining the Chamber (a little over a year ago) was as the Director of Marketing & Communications for the Downtown Center Business Improvement District (BID) - there, I developed marketing strategies to promote the vibrancy of Downtown LA. Prior to that I worked with the Avenues of Art & Design BID in Beverly Hills where I oversaw the implementation of marketing strategies, corporate sponsorship, media relations and more. “I’ve lived in Beverly Hills for more than 16 years,” Stettinski says proudly. “When I started my job at the Chamber one of the first things I did was conduct a survey of our local businesses to determine whether they were members of the Chamber or not. I wanted to find out what people wanted, what they needed. And at the top of the list was local marketing and locally focused networking events. That’s when we began our program of focused mixers: one for luxury retail, one for technology, and one for entertainment. “We know that a new generation of

young business professionals is emerging. They’re highly motivated. They’re interested in specifically focused networking, and they’re all connected through social media. We want them to see the benefits that Chamber membership can bring. That’s why we’ve started our Young Professionals Mixers. These are the young people we want to cultivate, reach out to, help educate and connect with.” Conveying the benefits of Chamber membership, Stettinski admits, is not always the easiest thing to explain. “For some businesses it’s a slam-dunk! They know the Chamber will be there for them when they need us: whether it’s for networking or to help apply for a city permit. People of the older generation have traditionally held a stronger emotional connection to the Chamber of Commerce. They understand the symbiotic nature of the relationship between the Chamber and the business community, and they know they needed to support it. For the younger generation of business professionals that connection is not as strong. So that’s a challenge we face. But we are definitely making progress. I can say with confidence that our message is getting through.”

broader audience, including culinary superstars like Chef Joel Robuchon who called Dassai “The best sake in the world.” A key factor in this level of recognition has been the company’s decision to focus exclusively on brewing only the highest quality Junmai Daiginjo sakes, making Dassai the only sake brewer in the world to adhere to this strict standard. (By comparison, most sake manufacturers limit their production of this caliber of sake to just 10 percent of total output). Choosing a path of quality over volume, this practice requires costly and labor-intensive steps such as milling rice to a minimum of 50 percent of original size, clearly demonstrating Dassai’s commitment to enhance centuries-old sake brewing methods by artfully combining traditional practices with high tech innovations. A true visionary in the industry, Mr. Sakurai spent years perfecting his own recipes and techniques to develop the unique flavor profiles, aromatics and structure of what would become the celebrated Dassai Collection. Today that portfolio includes Dassai 50, a premium junmai daiginjo sake made of rice milled down to 50%, as well as Dassai 23, an ultra-premium sake made of rice finely milled to a remarkable 23%, a level never before Mr. Hiroshi Sakurai

achieved by a commercial sake maker. Reflecting a taste for innovation, the company also recently introduced Dassai Sparkling 50, which puts a spin on traditional unfiltered nigori sake by adding the refreshing finesse of Champagne-like effervescence. All the Dassai sakes also have the distinction of earning the kosher certification, meaning they surpass even organic standards in terms of purity. The certification is also noteworthy because beyond any religious affiliation, kosher products are finding wide acceptance with increasing numbers of the general public looking for higher quality products. As important as quality and tradition are to the producers of Dassai, the company is also passionate about the ways premium sake is consumed and paired. First, these sakes – like any fine sake – should never be served hot, but chilled like a fine white wine. And while all the Dassai sakes are a perfect fit with Japanese cuisine, what’s changed is how Dassai sakes are showing up in many places where conventionally, you would not have the opportunity to experience sake.

South Bay HR, Inc.

Keeping employers out of trouble since 2005 Human Resources plays an important role in keeping employers out of trouble, particularly in California where labor laws can be downright brutal. A seemingly minor oversight can trigger an audit, cause an appearance before the labor board, generate stiff penalties or lead to a lawsuit. South Bay HR, Inc. helps keep employers out of labor-law trouble. Think insurance will pay to get you out of employment trouble? It is possible, but you might be on your own if you haven’t complied with the laws. At a minimum you will pay a large deductible. That’s money that could go to growing the business instead. did you know that: • If you pay commisions a written sales commission agreement is required by law in California as of January 1, 2013.

• Not including nine specific items on employee pay stubs can result in a penalty of up to $4,000… per employee… plus attorneys’ fees. • Paying someone as an independent contractor on a 1099 could result in penalties of between $5,000 to $25,000… per violation. • In labor disputes, the first thing most attorneys ask to see is the company’s Employee Handbook. Whether one employee or one hundred, employers in California must comply with labor laws. But which ones apply to you? Often it is the things an employer is not aware of that gets them into trouble. Do you really need an Employee Handbook? If you have at least one employee, it is a good

Is your existing Handbook updated to reflect current laws? Often it is more cost-effective to create a new Handbook than to invest the time to update an existing Handbook.

A properly conducted HR Audit is an investment that protects your business from the cost, distraction and stress of labor disputes in California. An HR Audit is no longer an option; it’s a necessity.

Driving Passions Cars driving local business. By Jim Farber.

In some cities of America it’s all about where you live, where your vacation house is or the boat you sail. In LA, and particularly in Beverly Hills, YOU ARE WHAT YOU DRIVE. Los Angeles is a car culture; we spend almost as much time in our cars as we do at work or at home. “The sale of cars in Beverly Hills has totally changed,” says Bruce Schulman, General Manager of prize-winning Mercedes-Benz of Beverly Hills. “Today there isn’t a domestic car dealership left in Beverly Hills. The dealers today are Mercedes-Benz, Lexus, Audi, Aston Martin, Rolls Royce and Bentley. And then you have your boutique cars like Lamborghini and Ferrari. Beverly Hills is primarily a high-end import market. You can’t find a Ford, Chevy or Toyota.”

Mercedes-Benz of Beverly Hills In the realm of fine hand-crafted automobiles no name has more history and stature attached to it than Mercedes-Benz, dating all the way back to 1886 when Karl Benz patented the first petrol-powered car! Mercedes-Benz, which began marketing cars under its signature tri-point symbol in 1926, also has a long historic connection to Hollywood and Beverly Hills, points out Mercedes-Benz of Beverly Hills’ general manager, Bruce Schulman.

Not everyone in search of a car in Beverly Hills is necessarily looking to buy. The rental market, particularly for high-end cars, is also thriving, explains Ryan Kerzner of Midway Car Rental.

They have to have a major credit card, and we do sell insurance on the vehicle including collision coverage.

Audi Beverly Hills

Audi Beverly Hills is not just another car dealership in Southern California. It is however one of the latest jewels in the crown for the Fletcher Jones Family Automotive Group which spans Hawaii, California, Nevada and Illinois, with 8 luxury brands in 19 dealerships. Fletcher Jones Jr. is recognized by industry leaders for reinventing the automotive retail business, with the development of Fletcher Jones Motorcars, Newport Beach, almost 21 years ago. This is the flagship of the successful automotive group and the number one Mercedes-Benz dealership in both new and Certified PreOwned sales, in the United States. The lessons learned have now been applied to the Audi Beverly Hills store which reflects the same high attention to detail and client satisfaction in the business. Fletcher Jones Senior began back in 1947 with a used car dealership on Vermont in Los Angeles and his son continues the legacy with the opening of Audi Beverly Hills, located within a couple of miles of the original lot.

The Audi dealership has two buildings across the street from each other, both facing Wilshire Boulevard. One provides the new car showroom and facilities to detail and store new vehicles, the other features the service department, luxuriously appointed client lounges and Certified Pre-owned Audi models. Audi Beverly Hills, in typical Fletcher Jones fashion, also offers complimentary amenities that rival any 5 Star Hotel. These include a gourmet coffee bar with fresh baked goods, Airport Shuttle and Vehicle Storage, new model Audi loaner cars, a shopping shuttle to take you (to and from) your favorite Beverly Hills shopping boutique, and free car washes, even when your Audi is not being serviced. Speaking of service, the new Audi Beverly Hills is home to the first Audi factory authorized service department, onsite technicians and complete factory parts department, ever available in the Beverly Hills city limits.

Rodeo Drive may be home to a one-of-a-kind $300,000 Lamborghini or Steve McQueen’s vintage 1949 Chevy pickup truck. “It began with people having us detail their cars and then ask us to store them while they were out of town,” says Prescott. “That’s when the idea of the Auto-Vault was born. But we don’t just store these cars. We babysit them. We maintain battery tenders to make sure all the on-board computer equipment and batteries are charged and running. We start and drive the cars. We detail them and have them ready whenever their owners want them available.” At present, Prescott says, the company

Detail-301 & Auto-Vault Storage Where Every Car is a Thoroughbred.

When Scot Prescott arrived in Los Angeles as a young man in 1979, he had $70 in his pocket and a deep love of cars. Already an expert auto detailer, he quickly found work prepping cars and making them showroom-ready for a local Ford dealer. From there he embarked on his first entrepreneurial venture. And he never looked back. “In 1980 I set up a mobile car detailing business, which I operated out of the back of my car,” he recalls. “I would ride around Beverly Hills and put my business card on the windshield of expensive cars— the Porsches, Bentleys, Rolls Royce and Ferraris I saw. By 1986 I had four trucks operating.” Prescott opened his first Beverly Hills detailing business, Detail-301, in 1980, just steps away from his current subterranean location at 440 N. Rodeo Drive. The business was so successful that soon it was operating on an “appointment only” basis. Then something happened that added a whole new dimension to Prescott’s business. “People would have me detail their cars and ask if I could store them while they were out of town. At first I did it as a favor. Then I realized we could offer car storage as an added service. And that’s where the whole idea of the Auto-Vault Storage was born.” Today Prescott maintains two storage and fine detailing locations. His staff are expert at detailing new and classic cars. In addition, Auto-Vault Storage cares for well over 100 cars, which are looked after and pampered with babysitter-like attention, making sure that their batteries are kept constantly charged, tires are properly inflated, the engines and electrical systems are maintained in top working order, the gas tank is full, their coats are gleaming and their interiors are spotless, so when their owners return their special automobile is waiting for them and ready for the road. You could think of Auto-Vault Storage in Beverly Hills as a modern-day livery stable, says Prescott, the perfect place to maintain or store the elite thoroughbreds of the automotive world, whether it’s a vintage Ferrari, a classic Rolls Royce, a 1957 Chevy or the latest Lamborghini. On any given day the Auto-Vault hums to sound of fine-tuned, attentive detailing, while in the corners some of the most valuable

SHOPPING Shop Local In Beverly Hills

Mention Beverly Hills and its Golden Triangle and the first thought that comes to mind is the ultra-sophisticated shopping along Rodeo Drive: Tiffany’s, Fendi, Cartier, Armani, Chanel and so many more. Without question these are the crown jewel establishments that give Beverly Hills its shimmering cache. But there are so many other businesses throughout Beverly Hills— eateries, stationary stores, beauty parlors, confectioners florists, car detailers, dog groomers and wine stores whose names are not known internationally. They abound within the Golden Triangle as well as on South Beverly Drive, Robertson and La Cienega Boulevard. Together they play a crucial role in the economic mosaic that makes Beverly Hills a community. That’s why the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce conceived its signature program, Shop Local. “Shop Local encourages residents, people visiting Beverly Hills, and the people that work within the city to utilize their local resources,” explains Chamber Executive Director, Alexander Stettinski. “We make information about these businesses available on our website (www.BeverlyHillsChamber.com) and in our subscribe newsletter that comes out once a month.” The Chamber’s Shop Local Monthly eNewsletter features listings of the most interesting Local Experiences

With respect for each genre of his cuisine and the epicureans that will be enjoying it, Suki stocks his kitchen with nine different types of rice, cultivates his own herb garden, smokes his own meats and infuses his own vinegars.
