Encore Glass Celebrated it's 50th anniversary on October 14 with a ribbon cutting ceremony at its Fairfield Facility, held in partnership with the Fairfield-Suisun Chamber of Commerce as part of Manufacturing Week.
This event recognized both the company's milestone year and its Fairfield headquarters, which has served as Encore's home since moving from Benicia in 2013. The evening brought together employees, community members, and industry partners for a celebration of five decades of service to the wine industry.
Roberto Guzman, Chief Operating Officer, shared remarks before officially cutting the golden ribbon, reflecting on Encore's evolution from a small family business founded in 1975 to the nation's largest family-owned distributor of glass vittles dedicated to the wine industry.
Guests also joined in recognizing Encore's achievements, as the company received the Best Manufacturer Award from the Fairfield-Suisun Chamber of Commerce and a Congressional Commendation presented on behalf of congressman John Garamendi for its contributions to manufacturing, community engagement, and industry excellence.
The celebration coincided with Encore's launch of a newly redesigned website and release of limited-edition 50th anniversary bottles, commemorating the company's legacy of quality, service, and innovation in glass packaging.
