Putting on the Ritz: WarCollar celebrates another successful year at annual holiday party

Employees and their guests attended this year’s annual WarCollar Industries holiday party on Saturday, December 9 at the Ritz-Carlton at Tysons Corner. Guests were treated to a buffet dinner, dancing, and an open bar with rooms and Uber rides home provided.

In his welcoming speech, CEO and Founder Gene Bransfield recapped a successful year and expressed his gratitude for his supportive family and hard-working employees.

“This year we once again gather to thank each and every one of you for the job you’re doing to help our customers defend the nation. I feel privileged to have such a wonderful cadre of people here, and I am grateful to work with such a talented group of professionals… Personally, I am also grateful for my family, my children, and especially my wife who makes it possible to do what I do.”

As a sign of appreciation, all employees received a SWAG bag filled with branded items including an Under Armor sweatshirt. We also gave special recognition to a select few of our employees for their exceptional work and raffled off over a dozen prizes including gadgets, premium liquor, designer handbags, outdoor chairs, a Yeti cooler, legos, a noise-canceling headset, a Nintendo Switch, and an Oculus.

As always, we extend a huge thank you to Executive VP Chris MacInnes for organizing the entire event – venue, menu, prizes, and all – for the WarCollar family.
