Highline Aftermarket has entered into an agreement to acquire South/Win headquartered in Greensboro, North Carolina.
South/Win is a leading supplier of windshield washer fluid and RV and marine antifreeze to retailers and other customers throughout the United States. Highline is a leading national distributor of automotive consumable products.
South/Win operates manufacturing plants in Greensboro; Leominster, Massachusetts; Livonia, Michigan; Arlington, Texas; and Sparks, Nevada.

Will DuBose, president of South/Win, will lead Highline’s combined manufacturing business.
“Over 30 years, Will and Blaine DuBose have built a fantastic business at South/Win, with a reputation for high-quality products and exceptional customer service,” said Darcy Curran, CEO of Highline Aftermarket. “We welcome the DuBose brothers and the rest of the South/Win team to the Highline family. When combined with Highline’s existing manufacturing and coast-to-coast distribution capabilities, South/Win strengthens Highline’s ability to serve customers nationwide.”
DuBose commented, “Blaine and I and our team are excited to continue South/Win’s growth as part of the Highline family. We are thrilled for the opportunities that this transaction presents for South/Win’s employees, customers, suppliers and other partners.”
