Roy Gugliotta leads Upland Chamber
UPLAND — Upland Chamber of Commerce has hired Roy Gugliotta, formerly with the Healdsburg Chamber of Commerce, as president and CEO, replacing Sonnie Faires who retired in November after leading the Chamber for 10 years.

Prior to his work with the Healdsburg Chamber, Gugliotta was president and CEO of the Rohnert Park Chamber of Commerce in Northern California, as well as CEO of the Sedona Valley/Camp Verde Chamber of Commerce in Arizona. A civil engineering graduate of the University of Dayton in Ohio, Roy’s work as a small business owner led him to chamber work to assist other business owners succeed.
Catered by Pine Haven Catering and Confections of Upland, the chamber recently hosted a small gathering at the home of board member Mark Bertone to introduce the new chamber executive.
“The board is very excited about Roy leading the Chamber. He is friendly, approachable and knowledgeable, and will be a real asset to our city,” Bertone said.
Gugliotta said he already feels at home in Upland. “Beginning with my first interview last fall, everyone has made me feel welcome. I feel like wherever I go in this city I am among friends,” he Gugliotta.
