AFG Distrobution
Your One-Stop Alternative Distributor
AFG Distribution offers an extensive range of over 8,000 different products and is a leader
in the industry and at the forefront of innovation with their cutting-edge new products. With a
firm commitment to their customers, they strive to provide the best possible service through
a knowledgeable and friendly staff who are dedicated to putting the customers’ needs first. They
specialize in alternative merchandise and have built a reputation for being “Your One-Stop Alternative
Distributor”. Whether it’s a new release or a tried and tested classic, AFG has curated a streamlined
selection of everything their customers need in one place.
AFG has come a long way since its inception in 1999 when Jayson
Magura, AFG’s Owner and CEO, began peddling wares in the
parking lots at Grateful Dead and Phish shows in the 90s. In fact, next
year, the company is celebrating 25 years of growth and excellence!
As ever-expanding operations do, AFG has outgrown their previous
space and decided to expand to a new warehouse to better serve their
customers and offer the industry’s widest product selection. “Our
new warehouse and fulfillment facility is an exciting upgrade for
AFG Distribution. It provides us the opportunity to operate much
more efficiently and optimally. The new warehouse construction has
allowed for vast improvements for our employees that will directly
correlate to an expedited, more accurate and satisfying customer
experience,” Shane Shewbridge, Vice President at AFG mentions.
With this new, 100,000 sq ft warehouse, AFG is able to stock more
products, providing a wider range of options for their customers.
This expansion has increased their storage capacity, which enables
them to better manage their inventory and meet customer demand
more efficiently. Overall, the expansion has been a significant
investment in the company’s future, allowing them to continue
to grow and improve their service offerings. Although AFG has
experienced many changes through the years, customers can be
assured that AFG is still owned by Jayson, located in Asheville, NC and has an excellent staff hard at work everyday, as it always has.
‘‘We are very excited and thankful to be celebrating a milestone
of 25 years in business next year and look forward to many, many
more!’’, says Jayson Magura, CEO.
The Pulsar brand has made a name for itself as AFG’s fastest
growing brand, encompassing many top-selling product lines such
as: The APX Family, The Sipper, The 510 DL Series, ProShift and
Shire Pipes. The Pulsar APX Family is a beloved line of cuttingedge models including The APX Vape, APX Wax, APX Volt, APX
Smoker, and the newest addition: The APX Pro Vape. This release
of the new APX Pro Vape is aptly named as it is equipped with a full
temp control (from 320° to 430°F), haptic feedback and an OLED
display, bringing even more tech to the APX Family. Another fun,
new product under the Pulsar Brand is The Pulsar Sipper: A Freestanding vaporizer with water filtration that works for both wax and
510 thread cartridges. 510 thread cartridges are super popular, being
the industry standard cartridge thread type, which is why Pulsar has
released multiple products to fulfill the needs of consumers that use
carts. The Pulsar 510 DL was also recently introduced as a “down low
and discreet” 510 thread cart vape series. These 320mAh, variable
voltage 510 thread vape pen devices were specially designed to look
more like the average nicotine mod style vapes for ease of on-the-go
vaping. Coleman Fowler, Product Manager at AFG points out, “AFG
continues to push industry products forward and expand on what
people generally expect from a distributor. We are developing and
growing several of our Pulsar lines with high-end versions of the
APX Vape and Pulsar ProShift to keep our customers using the best
devices we can offer.”
AFG is thrilled to be embarking on the process of securing multiple
license agreements that would allow them to produce officially
licensed products in collaboration with major companies such
as Lord Of The Rings, High Times, Cheech & Chong and more.
Bennett Dickert, Marketing Manager at AFG asserts, “Acquiring
license agreements and producing officially licensed products and
collaborations with top brands enables us to expand our offering
and better serve our customers with trending products!” They’ve
already successfully released a timeless classic in pop culture’s past
and present: The Pulsar Shire Pipes line. This exclusive line of iconic
wooden pipes is specially designed to suit the taste of any Hobbit,
Wizard, or Elf, and would even make Gandalf himself proud to
puff upon. AFG and Pulsar have several exciting collaborations
in the works with other major brands, with plans to offer an array
of innovative products including vaporizers, 510 cart batteries,
grinders, rolling trays, skateboard decks, and much more. With
a focus on creativity and quality, AFG is dedicated to delivering
exceptional products that meet the needs and exceed expectations
of their customers.
