Transpac Brands relocates operations to Virginia
Transpac Brands announced a strategic relocation of its operations and shipping facility from Northern California to Virginia, positioning the company closer to its parent organization, C&F Enterprises.
This move marks a significant milestone in the company’s long-term growth strategy and reflects a commitment to improved efficiency, customer service and operational alignment.
“Operating a business in California has presented ongoing challenges, particularly around labor availability in our Distribution Center, which is projected to worsen over the next several years,” said Laurie Gilner, president/CEO of Transpac Brands. “In addition, rising labor, operating costs, and tariffs have placed increasing pressure on our margins. Relocating to Virginia allows us to strengthen our supply chain, optimize logistics, and ultimately deliver even greater value to our customers.”
By transitioning operations to the East Coast, Transpac will be geographically closer to a large percentage of their customer base, enabling faster transit times, improved freight options and greater flexibility in shipping operations. The move also enhances collaboration with other C&F Enterprises divisions allowing for consolidation of containers and freight.
Transpac recently completed its holiday season shipments from its Vacaville, California, facility and is now finalizing plans for Spring Garden shipping, with a target start date of Jan. 1 out of the new Virginia location. The company is committed to maintaining open communication throughout the transition to ensure a smooth and seamless experience for retail partners.
“Our dedication to delivering quality products, exceptional service, and reliable fulfillment remains unwavering,” Gilner said. “We want to thank our retail partners for their patience and continued trust during this transition. We’re confident this move will strengthen our business and enhance the customer experience in 2026 and beyond.”
