Running a business in Los Angeles comes with endless opportunities—and just as many logistics headaches. Whether you're fulfilling hundreds of online orders or managing inventory for your creative studio, one thing’s clear: you need space that works just as hard as you do.

But for many small businesses in the LA area, finding the right warehouse space is a major challenge. Traditional industrial leases are expensive, inflexible, and often oversized for what a modern business actually needs.

That’s where Saltbox Duarte comes in.

Our locations offer more than just square footage. It's a community-driven warehouse and workspace built for ecommerce brands, small-scale manufacturers, wholesalers, creatives, and more.

Why location matters for business logistics

Situated northeast of downtown Los Angeles, Saltbox Duarte offers the best of both worlds:

  • Easy access to major freeways like I-605 and I-210 for smooth regional and national shipping
  • Lower-cost leasing options compared to high-demand areas like DTLA or El Segundo
  • Close proximity to the San Gabriel Valley—a key hub for importers, wholesalers, and product-based businesses

Whether you're shipping nationally or managing returns and restocks, location is everything in logistics. Duarte positions your business for success.

Flexible warehouse space designed for businesses of all kinds

  • Private warehouse suites tailored for ecommerce, wholesalers, creatives, or light manufacturing
  • Month-to-month leasing so you can grow without being locked into long-term commitments
  • 24/7 access and secure facilities, giving you peace of mind and operational freedom
  • Coworking options so your office and your inventory can live under one roof

It’s warehouse space that adapts to you—not the other way around.
