💊 Sponsor Spotlight: Norwich – An Alvogen Company

For more than 130 years, pharmaceutical manufacturing has been part of Norwich’s history. Today, Norwich – An Alvogen Company continues that legacy by producing high-quality generic medications while providing important employment opportunities within our community.

Their impact extends far beyond the manufacturing facility. Each year, the company closes for Alvogen Day so employees can volunteer throughout Norwich and the surrounding area. In 2026, more than 300 employees participated in projects supporting local organizations and improving our community.

Alvogen also supports local events, including Colorscape Chenango and the Chenango Blues Festival, contributes to the United Way and local food drives, and encourages employees to serve on community boards and committees.

Commerce Chenango recently recognized Alvogen with its 2026 Manufacturing Appreciation Award, honoring the company’s long history, dedicated workforce and continued commitment to Chenango County.

We’re proud to recognize Norwich – An Alvogen Company as a valued Commerce Chenango member and 2026 President Level Sponsor. Thank you for your continued investment in our organization and our community!
