Est. 2016 · Our 10th year — America’s 250th
Celebrating 10 Years of Resilience, Growth, and American Opportunity
This year marks 10 years since we started our journey in 2016.
Over the past decade, we have faced the same challenges many businesses have faced: economic uncertainty, global disruptions, rising costs, COVID, supply chain issues, and a world that has changed again and again. But through it all, we kept moving forward.
We grew. We adapted. We stayed committed to serving our customers.

And now, as we celebrate Independence Day, we are proud to share the next chapter of our story.
We have started building our printing and production capabilities here in California, with a larger vision ahead: bringing more manufacturing back to the United States, including our PET cup production.
For us, this is about more than cups.
It is about creating American jobs. It is about investing in local production. It is about proving that growth, manufacturing, and opportunity can still happen here — even in a place as challenging and expensive as California.
This American flag cup was created to celebrate that spirit: independence, resilience, and the belief that building something here still matters.
To our customers, partners, and everyone who has supported us over the last 10 years: thank you.
Every cup, every order, and every opportunity has helped us take one more step toward the future we are building.
We are proud of where we started.
We are proud of how far we have come.
And we are excited for what comes next.
Happy Independence Day.
