The History & Background of Constellation Brands

A certain Marvin Sands from Finger Lakes, New York founded a bulk wine sales company and named it Canandaigua Industries. He found initial success and gained great revenue, clearing $1 million in revenue in 1954. The company introduced Richard’s Wild Irish Rose wine brand that spearheaded the growth of the company.

The products offered have led to even more amazing growth and revenue that reached over $8 million by 1961. The success and demand of their products have led Marvin Sands to establish the Canandaigua Wine Company in 1972, and it went public in 1973. It was run by Marvin Sands, and later his son took the reins.

In 2000, the company changed its name to Constellation Brands, honoring the range of brands they represent. At the moment, the CEO is Rob Sands, the second son of the founder Marvin Sands. They are the main importer for major brands like Corona beer, Modelo Especial, Negra Modelo, Pacifico, Svedka Vodka, Casa Noble Tequila, and more. They are the main distributors for about 100 brands, among which are the Funky Buddha craft beer, and High West Whiskey, and Nelsons Green Brier Tennessee Whiskey.

This is one of the most successful wines, beer, and spirits distributors in the country. They have 40 sales centers, and each is closely involved in the community it operates in. The list of locations can be seen on the company website. The official company website also has a list of all the brands they represent, and the other services they offer to all their clients.
