About Lathrop Spotlight

A local guide for the people who make Lathrop worth exploring.

Lathrop Spotlight is a local publication created to help residents discover great businesses, services, dining and shopping throughout the Lathrop community.

What We Believe

Small businesses deserve a beautiful stage.

Neighbors first

Every issue is made for the people who live here, so the businesses inside are the ones you can actually visit.

Quality on the page

A local business should look as good in print as the work it does. We design each issue to be kept, not tossed.

Honest by default

We don’t publish testimonials we didn’t earn or numbers we can’t stand behind.

Lathrop Spotlight is an independent publication and is not affiliated with the City of Lathrop.
