Agilex Fragrances Acquires Airabella

Agilex Fragrances has acquired the assets of Texas-based Airabella.  This strategic combination will enhance Agilex’s role as the leading middle market fragrance company in the US, said the company. 
 
With recognized expertise in air care, home care, personal care, fine fragrance and industrial applications, Agilex is a preferred creative fragrance partner for companies seeking to maximize the value of their brands. 
 
Agilex CEO Ray Hughes stated, “The addition of Airabella to the Agilex portfolio further strengthens our position in the United States by enlarging our presence in certain geographies and making our product line available to a whole new group of consumer packaged goods companies.” 
 
Airabella was established in 2010 by Bryant and Cheri Gauthier.  Over the last five years the business has expanded both organically and through acquisition.  
 
Agilex Fragrances has manufacturing facilities in Branchburg, NJ; Canton, GA and Zhaoqing, China along with a creative center in Piscataway, NJ.  Airabella’s Houston, TX operations will be absorbed into these existing Agilex facilities. Agilex Fragrances’ management has also expressed a strong desire to transition a number of the current staff of Airabella, LLC.
