The City of San Fernando is delighted to attract investment from Gryphon Capital as our partners in renewing a shopping center that had a large, vacant retail space for many years. By leveraging their extensive relationships with quality retail tenants and experience managing large shopping centers, Gryphon Capital was able to work with Target to occupy the vacancy and fill a need for the community. This investment by Gryphon Capital not only created new jobs, but also made a number of improvements to the property that enrich and beautify our community. We look forward to Gryphon Capital being an active part of the San Fernando community for many years to come.

Gryphon Capital with the leadership of Chris Shane, has supported the City immensely with bringing much-needed economic development to our community. Gryphon Capital has seen the need the City has, listened to our concerns, and delivered. Being a City over 100 years old brings a unique challenge to infrastructure and infill projects. The "out of the box" thinking has delivered outstanding results for generations to come.
