Congratulations to the
Manufacturing Business of the Year
Firmenich
Congratulations to the Manufacturing Business of the Year - Firmenich!  At the onset of the COVID19 pandemic, they evaluated how to lead in the local response. They leveraged their supply chain expertise and donated over 7,000 N95 masks to Children's Hospital Orange County. This helped meet a critical need for CHOC early in the pandemic. Additionally, Firmenich sourced hand sanitizer from its sister plant in Princeton, NJ to fill a critical gap. Firmenich helped to fill a need for 5 hospitals in Orange County, 3 in Anaheim.
