With nearly eight million fans in Mexico, the Steelers have the second largest fanbase in Mexico among all NFL teams.

To commemorate this partnership between the two organizations, Vitro and the Steelers did their take on the traditional NFL jersey swap. Vitro CEO Adrian Sada received a customized Steelers jersey, and in turn, he presented Steelers Vice President of Sales & Marketing Ryan Huzjak with a crystal Vince Lombardi Trophy.

Vitro Architectural Glass was founded in Pittsburgh in 1883. Vitro’s glass research and development center is also headquartered in Pittsburgh, a testament to its history in Western Pennsylvania.

In addition to visiting the Steelers headquarters at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex, Sada and Vitro executives visited Acrisure Stadium, which features Solarban 60 solar control, low-e glass by Vitro.
