Furthermore, their company culture is one that celebrates an entrepreneurial spirit while providing both personal and professional growth for their associates. We look forward to a long and successful relationship.�

Continues Dolce International Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Andrew Dolce, �The proposed changes to the resort�s 294 guest rooms, the addition of a dedicated conference wing and business center, and the complete overhaul of the communications technology throughout the facility, when combined with it�s two existing championship golf courses, will position the Industry Hills Sheraton Resort & Conference Center as the largest, year-round conference resort in Southern California approved by the International Association of Conference Centers (IACC).  Considering the property�s proximity to the three major Los Angeles airports and its extensive resort amenities, Industry Hills Resort and Conference Center will be a great destination for meetings.
