About

Founded in 1997 and headquartered in Schaumburg, US, American Auto Guardian Inc. is focused on the motorsport industry, offering sponsorship services to racing teams.
The company was acquired by The Amynta Group in January 2020, following a deal finalized in September 2019. The leadership team includes CEOs Craig Robinson and Tim Brugh. AAGI primarily operates within the sports sponsorship sector, focusing on providing financial and promotional support to racing teams and events, particularly in the NASCAR Xfinity Series. The company has established a multi-race partnership with Ryan Ellis and Alpha Prime Racing, prominently featuring the No.
43 Chevy Camaro. AAGI's core offerings revolve around brand visibility and engagement through sponsorships, which are strategically designed to enhance brand recognition among motorsport enthusiasts and a broader audience. The end use cases for these sponsorships include increasing market presence and brand loyalty, particularly within the automotive and sports sectors. AAGI’s products are marketed predominantly in the United States, where NASCAR events draw significant viewership and engagement, thereby ensuring that their client base, which encompasses brands looking to reach a sports-centric demographic, is well served.
AAGI's revenue model is predominantly built around sponsorship agreements and partnerships in the motorsport arena.
