Connection 5

The City of Commerce is known throughout the region as a
“Model City” because residents, businesses and visitors enjoy
quality services, programs, and events, all for minimal to no
cost. What makes this possible are our local business partners and
the revenue generated by sales taxes. However, the one business
that contributes much more to the community than any other organ-
ization is the Commerce Casino and Hotel.

Established in 1983 to provide card players a safe and fun venue
to play and more importantly for the City to safeguard revenue
against future economic slumps, the Commerce Casino was trans-
formed from a modest poker room into the world’s largest card room
with over 270 active poker tables, drawing more than 9,000 visitors
a day.

CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE CITY
The success of the Commerce Casino results in contributions of
more than $27 million to the annual Commerce Operating Budget,
making it a major driving force behind the City’s economic stability.
In fact, it is anticipated that approximately 42.3% of the City’s budget
will be funded by the Commerce Casino, helping to sustain Public
Safety, Libraries and Park and Recreation programs like the Miss
Commerce Pageant, various Senior Center activities and services,
and after school programs for children and teens.

TOURIST ATTRACTION
The Casino is also a major tourist attraction, serving as the home
for major poker tournaments, such as the LA Poker Open, the Cal-
ifornia State Poker Championship, and the Los Angeles Poker Clas-
sic. In addition, the Casino is a venue for several high profile
sporting events, such as world boxing championships, live Mixed
Martial Arts events, and so much more. The Casino attracts hun-
dreds of thousands of visitors from all around the globe to the City
of Commerce. More tourists mean more money being spent in the
Model City, which helps local retail businesses grow and prosper.
When businesses prosper, so do residents.

The Commerce Casino isn’t just a place to play card games: it is
also a place to relax and rest. The full-service 9-story Crowne Plaza
Hotel provides luxurious amenities such as the Meridian Day Spa,
a beauty salon, pool and sundeck, banquet rooms, shops, enter-
tainment, and fine dining options.

COMMUNITY PARTNER
The Commerce Casino is not only the world’s largest card room,
it is also the City of Commerce’s largest community partner. The
Casino continues to be a strong supporter of the City’s Scholarship
Program, generously donating $50,000 to the scholarship’s budget
annually. This past year, 74 of the highest achieving students in
Commerce were awarded a scholarship. For the past 30 years,
the Commerce Casino has contributed more than $1,000,000 to
the scholarship program, which has helped thousands of students
from our City pursue their educational dreams.

“It has been a great honor – and one of my favorite responsibilities
– to participate in the Scholarship Program,” said John Griffo, Di-
rector of Business Development at the Commerce Casino. “Getting
to speak with and contribute to the future academic success of
some of the most talented and accomplished students in our com-
munity is personally and professionally rewarding.”

In addition, the Commerce Casino is a major sponsor of the City’s
Clippers Community Night, donating funds to purchase tickets so
that a busload of local children and teens can enjoy an exciting bas-
ketball game at Staples Center every year.

The Casino also brings holiday cheer to those who need it. The
Casino regularly donates nearly 300 meals to the Commerce Public
Library’s Children’s Holiday Program and provides more than 200
meals to the City’s Holiday Cheer Program. They also supplement
the program by throwing a party for those less fortunate in our com-
munity by providing toys, crafts, entertainment and a visit from
Santa Claus himself. The Casino ensures that all in our commu-
nity can have wonderful holiday memories with their families.

The Casino’s generosity doesn’t stop there. The Casino’s gifts of
breakfast burritos are all the rage at the Commerce Senior Center.
They also provide meals, gift cards, raffle prizes, and host several
fun events for local senior citizens and so much more!

The Commerce Casino is more than a typical poker room; it is a
top employer which provides more than 2,400 jobs. They are a
caring corporate partner that helps enrich the lives of children,
students, and seniors. Thanks to the Commerce Casino, residents,
businesses and visitors all enjoy an amazing experience in the
Model City.
