Council highlights Solens Connector and Performance 360 during city business reports
Summary
Councilmembers described visits to two long‑standing local businesses — Solens Connector, a family‑run electronics‑connector manufacturer, and Performance 360, a strength and conditioning gym — noting employment, training programs and community engagement.
During the council business segment, members reported on recent visits to San Marcos businesses. Mayor described Solens Connector as a multi‑generation, family‑run manufacturer that employs about 60 people, has long‑tenured staff and produces specialized electronic connectors used in traffic controllers and other applications.
"The company employs about 60 people, including team members that have been with the company for over 30 years," the mayor said, praising the business’s investment in technology and workforce continuity. Councilmembers noted Solens' role in the local manufacturing ecosystem and its niche in producing small‑batch, high‑quality connectors.
The council also spotlighted Performance 360, a strength and conditioning franchise owned locally by Cassie McGrath. Councilmembers described its six‑week training cycles, multiple daily classes, and a 30‑day trial promotion. The presentation emphasized the business's community orientation and accessibility, including a woman‑owned business note and ample parking at its San Marcos Boulevard location.
