Constellation Brands was recognized as the “Large Company of the Year” by The Beverage Forum at the 2016 conference. Rob Sands, President and CEO of Constellation Brands, accepted the award at the annual conference in Chicago in April, where he was also the keynote speaker. The award is given to a company that stood out in the previous year, and has risen to meet the opportunities and challenges in the beverage space. “This is an incredible honor,” said Sands. “It certainly has been another milestone year for our company, and this award is a testament to talented employees that work hard to deliver for our distributors, customers and consumers every day.”
