Global consumer products company Automotive Care Laboratories LLC (ACL) has reached an agreement with West Coast Customs to develop an expanding portfolio of car care products, fuel and oil additives, and other multiple products in adjacent categories, as the exclusive marketer and distributor for the branded portfolios. In addition to West Coast Customs Car Care, ACL owns other brands and licensing agreements in the automotive aftermarket.

I’m honored to be working side-by-side with Ryan Friedlinghaus and his team, as we aggressively roll out their premium, highly successful brand in all relevant categories and countries.”
With global headquarters in New York City and international headquarters in Hong Kong, Automotive Care Laboratories has experienced tremendous growth recently through a combination of strategic acquisitions, licensing agreements and innovative product development. Fiery also has recently announced the opening of the company’s new West Coast office in Orange County, California.
