A national brewery ran a large-scale beer production plant in Fairfield from 1976 until its closure in 2026, exactly the kind of half-century industrial run that shapes what a local workforce knows how to operate. The brewery is gone now. That brewing history sits alongside two manufacturers still running in Fairfield today: a jelly bean maker headquartered in the city that ranks among its top-10 employers, producing candy at a scale few confectionery markets can match, and a household-products company running a bleach manufacturing plant in the same city. Both operations depend on packaging automation built for exact fill weights and constant line speed: precise candy portions on one line, sealed household-liquid containers on the other.

Travis Air Force Base is Fairfield's largest employer by a wide margin, with roughly 13,400 jobs, but the confectionery and household-goods manufacturing running alongside it is where our equipment fits into a diversified local economy. PLAN IT doesn't run a plant in Fairfield, but a candy line weighing product to an exact portion and a household-liquid line sealing bottles both call for the same category of gear: EliteWeigh multihead weighers to portion candy by weight, Mars Series VFFS baggers to bag it at speed, and automatic case packers and case erectors to finish bottled household-liquid product into shipping cases without added labor. Our California location page, confectionery industry page, flow wrapping category, VFFS machine category, and full solutions catalog cover the equipment fit for Fairfield's candy and household-products manufacturers, whatever stage of automation each line is running today.
