The growing personal and professional services sector in Richmond already includes some high-profile businesses. For example, the first Magic Johnson Sport Club—a joint venture between Magic Johnson and 24 Hour Fitness—opened in Richmond. And Richmond-based Hartmann Studios, a full-service event design and production studio, provided the décor and lighting for the wrap party celebrating Pixar Studios’ Oscar-winning hit The Incredibles.
Though these kinds of success stories make the headlines, there is plenty of activity in more routine service categories, such as finance, law, real estate, and the trades—plumbing, electrical, and residential and commercial construction. And many service organizations, such as Kaiser Permanente Hospital and The Mechanics Bank headquarters, have been a presence in Richmond for more than two generations.
As more and more businesses discover that there is ample commercial space available in Richmond—and vacant land to be developed—the demand for real estate services in particular will grow. With over 60 percent of its population between the ages of 18 and 64, Richmond has a large appetite for services of all descriptions.
About three years ago, I decided to redirect my career toward a more holistic medical approach and retired from nursing to enter physical fitness. At Curves, we encourage personal growth and achievement, which includes community outreach by aiding numerous charitable fund-raising efforts throughout the Bay Area. At the Richmond Marina location, we are fortunate to have joined a community of passionate and spirited women who continue giving freely of their talent, time and effort. I am pleased to be part of such a wonderful community of caring and giving individuals!
