The Outlet LA Story
Welcome home family!
The Outlet LA is a rapidly expanding nightlife and hospitality company that specializes in curating sophisticated and upscale social events in Los Angeles. The company was founded in 2020 as a way to fulfill the desire for more upscale social experiences and concepts in the city.
From inception, The Outlet LA has activated some of the most iconic venues in Los Angeles and has been responsible for the most luxurious experiences the city has ever seen. We recently entered into the tech sector of hospitality with real estate acquisitions and ground-up developments of luxurious event spaces, lounges and boutique hotels on the horizon. The company is rapidly expanding thanks to our focus on filling the voids of curating quality spaces for the 35+ demographic of the black community in Los Angeles and developing luxurious hospitality concepts with this specific demographic in mind. In our market analysis, we realized this specific group had been previously overlooked for quite some time.
The Outlet LA’s track record of producing luxurious events, its focus on hospitality innovation and developing true community in Los Angeles has set the stage for extraordinary impact locally and soon globally.
The tastemaker behind The Outlet LA, Eric “Doctor Dapper” Jones, has become one of the most influential entrepreneurs of his time. His close-knit entrepreneur network and strong business acumen has stemmed from almost a decade of entrepreneurial business affairs. A fashion major in college and well known style enthusiast, he has always enjoyed developing nostalgic business ideas and conceptualizing beautiful products for others to enjoy.
Upon relocating to Los Angeles, stepping into the hospitality industry became the clear path for him to take with his unparalleled understanding of how to offer a sophisticated cultural experience. Thanks to his southern roots, his approach to nightlife & hospitality has brought a breath of fresh air to the industry here in Los Angeles and offered spaces where ambitious entrepreneurs and influential creatives can go to dress up catch a good vibe and dance.
With the recent acquisition of ETA, Eric has led the company’s expansion into the tech sector of nightlife and hospitality. ETA is a Los Angeles based events discovery platform that can be utilized on iOS & Android.
He plans to continue expanding The Outlet’s footprint into hospitality specific real estate through both acquiring existing spaces and ground-up development of luxurious event spaces, lounges and boutique hotels.
