PCH Locals’ Spotlight Program
Apply for Your Free Listing
PCH Locals is a curated spotlight of the best independent businesses from Belmont Shore to Sunset Beach. Every listing meets our simple standard: independently owned, community trusted, personally reviewed and serving the Belmont Shore to Sunset Beach coastal community. No pay for placement. No shortcuts. Just real businesses that real neighbors actually love.
What We Look For
PCH Local's standards are simple. We're not looking for perfect businesses. We're looking for the ones that make our coastal communities worth living in.
1
LOCALLY OWNED
Local ownership matters more than local presence. A national chain with a Seal Beach storefront isn't a local business because the profits flow to corporate. A Long Beach-owned business with two locations serving Belmont Shore to Sunset Beach residents, is local. We follow the ownership and who they serve, not just the address.
2
POSITIVE GOOGLE REVIEWS
Your reputation matters. We look at what your customers say about you. It's not just about the star average, but the substance in those reviews. Businesses with consistent positive feedback and the willingness to respond to criticism honestly are the kind we list. We also talk to residents if you don't have any current reviews.

SERVING BELMONT SHORE TO SUNSET
BEACH COMMUNITIES
Your business actively serves communities in the beach areas of Sunset Beach, Surfside, Seal Beach, Naples, Belmont Shore and parts of Long Beach. Storefront or service area - both qualify. What matters is that your customers are real Belmont Shore to Sunset Beach residents and businesses.

SUPPORTS THE COMMUNITY
You're committed to making things better for everyone, not just your bottom line. That can mean sponsoring local teams, hiring locally, sourcing from other area businesses, or simply running a business that adds something real to the neighborhood. Being local is about more than an address. It's about showing up for the community you serve.
