Friday , 18 August 2017 | [News](https://blog.vomela.com/topic/news), [vomela](https://blog.vomela.com/topic/vomela) Locations across The Vomela Companies network came together this week to celebrate 70 years of quality service and prosperous growth. From coast to coast, team members gathered to share meals, have fun, and reflect on how much our company has changed over the past seven decades. ![70th anniversary blog 1](https://blog.vomela.com/hs-fs/hubfs/General%20Images/2017/70th%20anniversary%20blog%201.png?width=1150&name=70th%20anniversary%20blog%201.png) When John "Jack" Vomela founded the company in 1947, it was a humble print shop specializing in glitter-coated Christmas tags. Today, we're an interconnected system of industry-leading print providers - and we're growing every year.  ![70th anniversary blog 2](https://blog.vomela.com/hs-fs/hubfs/General%20Images/2017/70th%20anniversary%20blog%202.png?width=1150&name=70th%20anniversary%20blog%202.png) A history of hard work and strategic acquisitions has been The Vomela Companies' key to success. Since owner Tom Auth bought the business from Carlo Lamanna in 1990, we've acquired 17 companies (so far)! The timeline below contains just a few highlights of what has been a remarkable 70 years of business. At the end of each day, our success boils down to the hard work and dedication of our people nationwide. Thank you, team members, for being a part of what makes The Vomela Companies great. ![history infographic_v03c_OL_final.png](https://blog.vomela.com/hs-fs/hubfs/history%20infographic_v03c_OL_final.png?width=1160&height=3712&name=history%20infographic_v03c_OL_final.png)   Aug 18, 2017 | Topics: [News](https://blog.vomela.com/topic/news), [vomela](https://blog.vomela.com/topic/vomela) Share This, Choose Your Platform! - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) ### Related posts [Riverside-Backed Vomela Appoints Brian Hazelton as CEO Following Year of Strategic Growth](https://blog.vomela.com/riverside-backed-vomela-appoints-brian-hazelton-as-ceo-following-year-of-strategic-growth) [‘VomelaVision’ and the Art of Physical Brand Experiences](https://blog.vomela.com/vomelavision-and-the-art-of-physical-brand-experiences) [Vomela Acquires World-Class Events Company Moss, Forming a Global Experiential Events Production Powerhouse](https://blog.vomela.com/vomela-acquires-world-class-events-company-moss) ![super-bowl-lii-halo-Events](https://blog.vomela.com/hs-fs/hubfs/raw_assets/public/The_Vomela_Companies_July2020/images/super-bowl-lii-halo-Events-Exhibits-1.jpg?width=1000&height=667&name=super-bowl-lii-halo-Events-Exhibits-1.jpg) [Get Superior Quality](https://www.vomela.com/contact/) Learn more about our expertise, services, premier materials, and applications.
