Santa Ana Business Association launched to promote businesses in Santa Ana
SANTA ANA – When local businessman Art Pedroza found out that the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce had rejected his membership application, he didn’t get mad. Instead, he decided to start his own organization to promote Santa Ana’s businesses.
Pedroza was rejected because he has, in the past, been critical of the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce because they hold events outside of Santa Ana.
“Why are they holding events outside of our city when they are supposed to be promoting Santa Ana businesses,” said Pedroza.
Pedroza also contends that the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce is overpriced and does not reach out to Latino owned businesses and small businesses.
Pedroza is the publisher of the first Orange County political blog, the Orange Juice, which he started in 2003. Pedroza started his New Santa Ana blog last September. Both blogs have proven to be very popular.
Pedroza says that the Santa Ana Business Association will promote its members on the New Santa Ana blog. The new association will also assist members with matters involving local and legislative government.
