Champion Safe Launches Major Lean Transformation of Utah Factory to Increase Throughput, Lower Cost and Accelerate Dealer Fulfillment

Company Update

 

Comprehensive factory realignment is designed to eliminate waste and bottlenecks, increase throughput, lower unit costs, shorten lead times, improve quality and delivery consistency, strengthen working-capital efficiency, and create a more scalable operating platform for converting dealer demand into shipments and revenue.

 

PROVO, UT / ACCESS Newswire / September 23, 2026 / Champion Safe Company (championsafe.com), a premier manufacturer of high-security safes and vault doors, and a proud subsidiary of American Rebel Holdings, Inc. (OTC PINK:AREB), America’s Patriotic Brand™, today announced a major restructuring and physical realignment of its Utah manufacturing operation around lean manufacturing principles, representing a significant step forward in the company’s drive to increase production efficiency, accelerate throughput and build a more scalable manufacturing platform.

 

 

 

The factory realignment builds directly on Champion’s July 2026 strategic growth capital investment, which was directed toward manufacturing, supplier commitments and fulfillment. The current initiative takes that investment deeper into day-to-day factory execution by improving how steel, components, work-in-process and finished products move through Champion’s Utah manufacturing operation.

 

The initiative is redesigning the way materials, components, employees, work-in-process and finished products move through Champion’s factory. Rather than viewing manufacturing as a series of separate departments, Champion is restructuring the floor around a more efficient production flow intended to reduce unnecessary movement, waiting, handling and other non-value-added activity between manufacturing steps.

 

 

 

 

The objective is straightforward but far-reaching: move more safes through the factory, more efficiently and predictably, while maintaining the construction standards and quality Champion customers and dealers expect.

 

For Champion, the potential benefits extend well beyond the factory floor. A more efficient manufacturing operation can support lower production costs, greater output from existing resources, shorter manufacturing cycles, improved delivery reliability, better use of working capital, stronger dealer service and faster conversion of existing customer demand into completed shipments and recognized revenue.

 

“This is much bigger than moving equipment around a factory,” said Tom Mihalek, CEO of Champion Safe Company. “We are redesigning how work moves through Champion. We already have the products, the dealer relationships and the demand. The opportunity is to create a manufacturing system that moves that demand through the factory faster, more efficiently and with greater predictability.”

 

Mihalek continued, “When we reduce wasted movement, eliminate unnecessary waiting, remove bottlenecks and create better flow, the benefits can reach virtually every part of the business. Throughput can increase. Lead times can come down. Costs can improve. Delivery becomes more predictable. Working capital can move more efficiently. Most importantly, we can get more completed safes into the hands of our dealers and customers.”

 

Rebuilding the Factory Around Flow

 

At the center of the initiative is a simple manufacturing principle: every step in production should move the product closer to completion as efficiently as possible.

 

Champion’s realignment is examining the physical sequence of manufacturing processes, distances traveled by materials and partially completed safes, staging locations, work queues, handoffs between operations, employee movement, component availability and potential production constraints.

 

 

 

The company is evaluating how each production stage connects with the next and reorganizing the factory to create a more logical progression from raw material and components through fabrication, finishing, assembly, inspection and completion.

 

The goal is to replace unnecessary movement and disconnected production activity with a more coordinated flow in which each stage of manufacturing supports the next.

 

 

 

 

“We are looking at the entire factory as one connected system rather than a collection of individual departments,” said Kirk Brown, Executive Director of Operations for Champion Safe Company. “Where does material enter? How far does it travel? How many times is it moved or touched? Where does work wait? Where do bottlenecks form? What causes one area to get ahead while another falls behind? Those are the questions driving this realignment.”

 

Brown added, “The goal is less waiting, less motion, less handling, clearer processes and a steadier movement of product toward completion. Every unnecessary step we can remove gives us an opportunity to improve the overall performance of the factory.”

 

Increasing Throughput Without Simply Adding More Cost

 

One of the most important potential benefits of the lean realignment is increased manufacturing throughput.

 

Manufacturing capacity is not determined only by the number of employees, machines or square feet inside a building. It is also determined by how effectively those resources work together.

 

A poorly flowing process can leave equipment waiting for components, employees waiting for the next operation, materials traveling unnecessary distances or partially completed products sitting between manufacturing stages.

 

Those delays consume time and capacity without creating additional finished product.

 

Champion’s lean initiative is designed to attack those inefficiencies throughout the production process.

 

By improving manufacturing flow and reducing time that products spend waiting between operations, Champion believes it can increase the amount of finished product generated by its existing manufacturing infrastructure.

 

That creates the potential for meaningful operating leverage.

 

To the extent Champion can increase output without requiring proportional increases in fixed costs, factory space, labor or capital equipment, the company can improve the economics of each incremental unit produced.

 

“We want more of every manufacturing hour devoted to actually building safes,” Mihalek said. “The opportunity is to get more output from the resources we already have while creating a structure that can support additional growth. That is good manufacturing discipline, and it is also good business.”

 

Lowering Cost by Eliminating Waste

 

Cost reduction is another important objective of the initiative, but Champion’s approach is not simply about cutting expenses.

 

The focus is on removing costs that do not add value to the finished product.

 

Every unnecessary movement of material requires time. Every extra handling step consumes labor. Every production interruption creates inefficiency. Every unit that waits between processes occupies valuable factory space and ties up working capital. Every quality issue discovered late in production can require additional inspection, repair, movement or rework.

 

Individually, those inefficiencies may appear small. Across thousands of manufacturing steps and hundreds of completed products, however, they can have a meaningful effect on unit cost and factory productivity.

 

Champion’s lean realignment is intended to systematically identify and reduce those sources of waste.

 

 

 

 

Potential benefits include fewer unnecessary material movements, more efficient labor utilization, reduced production delays, better organization of tools and components, lower rework requirements, more disciplined staging of work-in-process and improved utilization of manufacturing space.

 

The cumulative objective is a lower and more predictable cost structure while preserving the substantial construction and quality standards associated with Champion products.

 

Shortening the Time From Steel to Shipment

 

The company is also targeting manufacturing cycle time.

 

For Champion dealers, manufacturing efficiency ultimately becomes a service issue.

 

A safe that spends less time waiting between operations can move through production faster. A factory with fewer bottlenecks can produce against schedules more consistently. More consistent production can create more reliable shipment expectations.

 

That has meaningful implications throughout Champion’s dealer network.

 

Dealers depend on product availability to fill customer orders, maintain showroom selection and plan their businesses. Greater manufacturing predictability can help Champion provide better visibility into expected completion and shipment timing while reducing the operational disruptions created by unexpected production delays.

 

The impact can ultimately reach the end customer as well.

 

A customer purchasing a safe is often making a significant, considered purchase. Greater product availability and more dependable delivery timing improve the overall buying experience and give Champion dealers greater confidence when setting expectations with their customers.

 

Turning Existing Demand Into Shipments and Revenue

 

The operational transformation also has a direct connection to Champion’s financial performance.

 

Customer demand alone does not create the full economic benefit of a sale. Orders must ultimately move through manufacturing, be completed and ship.

 

Earlier in 2026, Champion reported a record dealer backlog of $3.9 million, which the company believes demonstrated substantial demand already in hand. The opportunity now is to strengthen the manufacturing system responsible for converting that demand into completed shipments and recognized revenue more efficiently.

 

Increasing production throughput gives Champion the opportunity to move existing demand through that process faster.

 

As the company has previously emphasized, converting open orders into finished shipments is an important operational priority. The lean factory realignment is designed to strengthen the production engine responsible for that conversion.

 

“The financial logic is very simple,” Mihalek said. “An unfinished safe sitting between production processes is tying up material, labor and working capital. A completed safe that ships serves our dealer, serves the customer and can become revenue. Our job is to shorten that journey wherever we can.”

 

 

 

 

Improved manufacturing flow therefore has the potential to affect multiple financial levers simultaneously: revenue conversion, cost per unit, working-capital efficiency, overhead absorption, inventory velocity and the amount of capital required to support future growth. By reducing non-value-added movement, waiting, handling, rework and work-in-process while increasing output, Champion expects the initiative to support improved profit margins over time.

 

Improving Working-Capital Efficiency

 

Lean manufacturing also creates an opportunity to improve how efficiently capital moves through the business.

 

Every partially completed safe represents materials and labor that have already been invested but have not yet reached the point of shipment.

 

Reducing the amount of time products remain in work-in-process can shorten that cash-conversion cycle.

 

Better production flow can also provide clearer visibility into component requirements and material consumption, supporting more disciplined purchasing and staging decisions.

 

Champion expects the realignment to provide greater visibility into where products are in the manufacturing process, what each production stage needs and where constraints are forming.

 

That information can help operations teams make better decisions before small problems become larger production disruptions.

 

Improving Quality Through Better Process Control

 

Champion’s lean initiative is also intended to reinforce product quality.

 

More organized manufacturing flow, clearer work sequences and more consistent processes can make deviations easier to identify earlier in production.

 

Finding a problem closer to the point where it originates is significantly more efficient than discovering it after additional labor and materials have already been added.

 

Champion therefore views quality and productivity as complementary goals rather than competing priorities.

 

The company’s objective is not to move products quickly at the expense of quality. It is to create processes that make it easier to build products correctly and consistently while identifying problems earlier.

 

“Speed only matters if the product coming off the line meets our standards,” Brown said. “Better flow gives us an opportunity to make quality more visible throughout the process. When work is organized, expectations are clear and problems are identified closer to where they occur, the entire operation becomes easier to manage and improve.”

 

Creating a More Predictable Factory

 

Predictability is another critical objective.

 

Manufacturing volatility creates ripple effects throughout an organization.

 

When one production stage falls behind, scheduling changes. When schedules change, component requirements change. When completion dates move, shipment planning changes. Dealer expectations must then be adjusted.

 

 

 

 

A smoother production flow can reduce that variability.

 

Champion believes a more balanced manufacturing system will provide operations teams with greater visibility into daily production performance, potential constraints and the status of work moving through the facility.

 

That can strengthen production scheduling, purchasing, logistics and dealer communication.

 

Rather than reacting to problems after they have already affected delivery, the company’s objective is to identify production constraints earlier and address them more systematically.

 

Making Better Use of the Existing Factory Footprint

 

Physical space is another valuable manufacturing resource.

 

Work-in-process inventory, unnecessary staging areas and inefficient movement can consume significant factory space without increasing output.

 

As Champion realigns its production floor, the company is examining how space is being used and how material and product movement can be consolidated.

 

Better space utilization can create additional effective capacity inside an existing facility.

 

That may allow Champion to increase production while limiting the amount of incremental factory space or infrastructure required to support each additional unit of growth.

 

It can also create cleaner production pathways, better organized work areas and improved visibility across the manufacturing floor.

 

Reducing Material Handling and Unnecessary Movement

 

Safes are substantial products.

 

Every unnecessary movement of steel, components or partially completed safes requires time, equipment and employee effort.

 

Reducing the distance materials travel through the factory and eliminating redundant handling can therefore create meaningful efficiency improvements.

 

A more logical factory layout can place related processes closer together, improve material staging and reduce unnecessary transportation between production steps.

 

Reducing excess movement can also support a more orderly work environment and reduce the physical burden associated with unnecessary handling.

 

Champion views those improvements as another example of how relatively simple operational changes can compound across the entire manufacturing process.

 

 

 

 

Giving Employees Clearer Processes and Better Visibility

 

Champion’s lean transformation is ultimately dependent on the people working inside the factory.

 

Employees see production issues every day. They know where work slows down, which processes create frustration, where unnecessary movement occurs and which problems repeatedly interrupt production.

 

The lean approach creates an opportunity to bring those observations into the continuous-improvement process.

 

Standardizing successful processes also makes it easier to train employees, cross-train teams, establish clear expectations and identify when actual performance begins to deviate from the expected process.

 

The result is intended to be a factory in which problems are easier to see, responsibilities are clearer and employees have a stronger framework for solving operational issues.

 

“Lean is not something management does to the factory,” Brown said. “The people doing the work have to be part of improving the work. Our team understands these processes at a very detailed level. We want to combine that experience with a better physical layout and more disciplined operating processes so we can continuously improve how Champion builds product.”

 

Supporting Better Dealer Service

 

Ultimately, Champion believes manufacturing improvements must translate into a better experience for its dealers.

 

Independent dealers remain central to Champion’s distribution model.

 

Those businesses need products they can sell, realistic delivery expectations and confidence that orders will move through Champion’s system as promised.

 

 

 

Greater manufacturing consistency can improve all three.

 

Faster throughput can increase product availability. More predictable production can support more reliable delivery schedules and more dependable fulfillment expectations. Better visibility into factory flow can also improve order-status visibility and give Champion’s sales team clearer information when communicating with dealers about existing orders.

 

 

 

 

It can also allow Champion’s sales organization to spend more time developing dealer business and less time managing manufacturing exceptions.

 

That connection between the factory and the dealer is a major reason Champion is placing significant emphasis on operational execution.

 

Building a Manufacturing Platform for Scalable Growth

 

Champion does not view the factory realignment as a one-time efficiency project.

 

The company intends for lean principles and continuous improvement to become increasingly embedded in how its manufacturing operation is managed.

 

As production flow improves, Champion expects to continue identifying opportunities to refine individual work areas, remove constraints, improve quality, standardize successful processes and increase output.

 

That creates a manufacturing platform that can evolve as the company grows.

 

A disciplined production system can also provide a stronger foundation for future investments in equipment, automation, manufacturing technology and information systems because standardized and visible processes are easier to measure and improve.

 

Rather than simply adding resources whenever demand increases, Champion intends to first maximize the productivity of its existing manufacturing system and then deploy additional resources where they can create the greatest return.

 

“This is about building the manufacturing company Champion needs to be for the future,” Mihalek said. “We want a factory that can grow with our dealers, respond faster to demand and convert opportunity into finished product with much greater efficiency.”

 

“We are attacking this from the factory floor up,” Mihalek continued. “More throughput. Better flow. Shorter cycle times. Lower waste. Greater predictability. Better use of capital. Stronger dealer fulfillment. Each improvement reinforces the others, and that is what makes this initiative so important.”

 

From Operational Discipline to Competitive Advantage

 

The broader objective is to make manufacturing execution a competitive advantage for Champion.

 

Products, brands and dealer relationships remain critical, but the ability to consistently manufacture and deliver product determines how effectively customer demand can ultimately be served.

 

Champion believes improving that capability can strengthen nearly every part of its business.

 

More efficient production can improve economics.

 

More throughput can support revenue growth.

 

Shorter lead times can improve dealer service.

 

Better quality control can reduce rework and strengthen customer satisfaction.

 

More reliable delivery can build dealer confidence.

 

 

 

 

Improved working-capital efficiency can strengthen the financial model.

 

Better utilization of space, labor and equipment can create additional capacity without requiring equivalent increases in fixed cost.

 

And a culture of continuous improvement can help Champion identify and solve operational problems faster as the business evolves.

 

“We have a tremendous opportunity in front of us,” Mihalek said. “This realignment is about taking the demand for Champion products and building an operation capable of serving that demand with greater speed, discipline and efficiency. We are building momentum, and we intend to keep pushing.”

 

Brown added, “You can walk through a factory and see equipment, steel and finished product. What we are focused on now is what happens between those things - the movement, the waiting, the handoffs, the decisions and the flow. That is where enormous opportunity exists. We are going after it process by process.”

 

Champion expects the physical factory realignment and ongoing process improvements to continue as the company evaluates production flow, identifies additional constraints and implements further improvements across its Utah manufacturing operation.

Champion Safe and Eastern Security Safe Go Big at The Big E With Major New England Safe Showcase

 

Friday, 25 September 2026 08:30 AM

 

Topic:

 

Company Update

 

Eastern Security Safe is showcasing a broad selection of Champion and American Rebel safes at one of New England’s largest consumer events, giving fairgoers a limited-time opportunity to compare products and work directly with experienced safe professionals. Champion helped prepare Eastern for the event with a full truckload of additional safes delivered before opening day. The high-traffic showcase also reflects Champion’s broader strategy of supporting strong dealers with product availability, local expertise and retail opportunities that can drive sell-through, replenishment orders and future revenue.

 

WEST SPRINGFIELD, MA / ACCESS Newswire / September 25, 2026 / Champion Safe Company (championsafe.com), a premier manufacturer of high-security safes and vault doors, and a proud subsidiary of American Rebel Holdings, Inc. (OTCID:AREB), America’s Patriotic Brand™, is highlighting Eastern Security Safe’s major presence at the 2026 Big E in West Springfield, Massachusetts, where the longtime New England safe specialist is showcasing Champion and American Rebel safes during the event’s limited 17-day run through October 4.

 

Eastern Security Safe is exhibiting inside The Big E’s Better Living Center, giving fairgoers the opportunity to see premium safes in person, compare sizes and configurations, ask detailed product questions and work directly with a company that specializes in safe sales, delivery, installation and service throughout New England.

 

 

 

Champion supported Eastern’s preparation for the event with a truckload of additional safes delivered before the fair opened, helping ensure the dealer arrived at one of its biggest consumer-facing opportunities of the year with substantial product availability and selection.

 

 

 

 

The event opened September 18 and closes October 4, leaving customers across New England only a limited window to visit Eastern’s display at one of the East Coast’s largest annual events.

 

“This is exactly the kind of opportunity we want to help our dealers maximize,” said Tom Mihalek, CEO of Champion Safe Company. “Eastern Security Safe has built a tremendous business around product knowledge, customer service and the ability to deliver and install these products correctly. We made sure they had additional Champion and American Rebel safes before The Big E opened so their team could enter the event ready to sell.”

 

The Big E: A Major New England Buying Opportunity

 

The Big E brings consumers from throughout New England together in West Springfield for 17 days of entertainment, food, shopping and regional attractions.

 

For Eastern Security Safe, that concentrated consumer traffic creates an opportunity to do what they do best: put customers in front of real products and help them understand the differences that matter before making a major purchase.

 

Safes are difficult products to fully evaluate from a photograph or spec sheet.

 

In person, customers can compare overall size, interior configuration, door construction, locking systems, fire protection, finishes and other features while getting practical guidance about delivery, placement and installation.

 

That experience is particularly valuable with large safes and vault products, where choosing the product is only part of the purchase. Getting it safely into a home or business and properly positioned can be just as important.

 

“People come to The Big E from all over New England, and it gives us a great opportunity to meet customers who may have been thinking about buying a safe but haven’t had the chance to really compare them in person,” said Derek Scott, manager at Eastern Security Safe. “We brought a strong selection to the show, and Champion made sure we had additional product before the event started. We like Champion because the safes are well-built with American-made steel, they offer the kind of quality and security our customers are looking for, and the company supports us as a dealer. Our goal is to help people understand their options, choose the right safe and make the entire process - from the sale through delivery and installation - as easy as possible.”

 

Eastern Security Safe: Built Around Safe Expertise

 

Eastern Security Safe has more than 40 years of experience in the safe business and operates showrooms in Mendon and West Springfield, Massachusetts. The company serves customers across all six New England states and has established itself as one of the region’s leading specialty safe retailers.

 

Its business extends well beyond simply selling products.

 

Eastern offers gun safes, home and office safes, commercial safes, specialty safes, vault doors, accessories, safe moving, delivery and installation services. Its professional moving operation uses specialized vehicles and equipment designed specifically for handling extremely heavy safes and difficult installations.

 

That capability creates an important difference for customers.

 

Buying a large safe online or from a general retailer can leave the customer responsible for figuring out how a product weighing hundreds of pounds - and in some cases considerably more - gets from the curb into its final location.

 

Eastern’s team works with customers through that process, including evaluating placement, access, stairs, flooring and other installation considerations.

 

 

 

 

“Eastern is the kind of dealer that adds real value to the product,” Mihalek said. “Their team understands safes, understands installation and knows how to guide a customer through a purchase that can last for decades. That expertise is one of the reasons they have developed such a strong presence throughout New England.”

 

Champion and American Rebel Safes on Display

 

Eastern Security Safe is using The Big E to showcase Champion and American Rebel safes to consumers who may otherwise never have the opportunity to compare premium safe products side by side.

 

Champion safes use American-made steel and are designed around substantial construction, security, fire protection and long-term ownership value.

 

The showroom-style environment at The Big E allows Eastern’s team to demonstrate those characteristics directly rather than relying solely on marketing claims or online product descriptions.

 

Customers can open the doors, examine interiors, compare available sizes and configurations, and talk directly with people who work with safes every day.

 

Champion’s pre-event truckload delivery gave Eastern additional product to support that opportunity throughout the fair.

 

“Sending product ahead of The Big E is one part of a larger dealer strategy,” Mihalek said. “When a strong dealer has access to a major consumer audience, we want them to have product available and the ability to capitalize on that traffic. If consumers buy through the inventory on the floor, that creates the opportunity for additional dealer replenishment orders and keeps product moving through the channel.”

 

Turning Dealer Support Into Retail Opportunity

 

For Champion, high-traffic retail events such as The Big E have importance beyond brand visibility.

 

Champion’s business ultimately depends on moving product through its dealer network to consumers.

 

Manufacturing output becomes more valuable when dealers have inventory available to sell. Dealer inventory becomes more valuable when it is placed in front of qualified consumers. Successful retail sell-through can then create demand for replacement inventory and additional dealer orders.

 

That cycle - manufacturing, shipment, dealer inventory, consumer sell-through and replenishment - is central to Champion’s broader strategy for converting manufacturing capacity into revenue.

 

The company’s recent focus on manufacturing efficiency, production throughput and dealer fulfillment is intended to support that process by getting more completed product into the hands of dealers who can sell it.

 

Eastern’s presence at The Big E provides a highly visible example of that strategy at work: an established dealer, supported with product ahead of a major consumer event, creating an opportunity to generate retail sales and future replenishment demand.

 

“Production and sales are connected,” Mihalek said. “Our factory can build more product, but ultimately that product needs to reach dealers and consumers. Supporting Eastern with inventory ahead of an event like The Big E helps connect manufacturing output to real retail opportunity. That is good for the dealer, good for the customer and important to Champion’s growth.”

 

 

 

 

A Limited-Time Opportunity at The Big E

 

Customers considering a safe purchase have only until October 4 to visit Eastern Security Safe at The Big E.

 

Eastern is located inside the Better Living Center, where its team is available to help customers compare products and answer questions throughout the remaining days of the event.

 

Eastern is also currently promoting its Big E Safe Sale through October 4, including 10% off eligible online purchases, up to 30% off select in-store inventory, and delivery and installation included on qualifying purchases. Product eligibility and promotional terms vary, so customers should confirm details directly with Eastern Security Safe.

 

The limited event window creates a clear reason for customers to act now rather than waiting until later in the year.

 

Anyone attending The Big E who has been considering a gun safe, home safe, office safe or vault door can use the remaining days of the event to compare products in person and speak directly with Eastern’s experienced team.

 

Two Massachusetts Showrooms Serving New England Year-Round

 

The Big E may be temporary, but Eastern Security Safe’s presence in New England is not.

 

Customers can visit Eastern year-round at its two Massachusetts locations:

 

Mendon Showroom
23 Providence Street
Mendon, MA 01756
508-473-1048

 

West Springfield Showroom
13 Bosworth Street
West Springfield, MA 01089
413-781-1048

 

Eastern sells, services and delivers throughout Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine.

 

Its West Springfield showroom gives customers a permanent location in the same market as The Big E, while the Mendon showroom expands Eastern’s reach across eastern Massachusetts and surrounding markets.

 

Customers can learn more about Eastern Security Safe, browse available products and contact the team at easternsecuritysafe.com

 

An Important Dealer Relationship in New England

 

Champion views independent specialty retailers such as Eastern Security Safe as essential to the premium safe category.

 

A knowledgeable dealer can explain construction, fire protection, locking systems, interior layouts and product differences while also helping customers understand the practical realities of delivery and installation.

 

That complete buying experience is difficult to replicate through a general retailer or online-only transaction.

 

Events such as The Big E put that expertise directly in front of a large regional audience while giving Champion another opportunity to support a dealer that has built its business around the safe category.

 

 

 

 

“We want people who visit The Big E to stop by Eastern’s display and actually experience these products,” Mihalek said. “Talk to Derek and the Eastern team. Open the safes. Compare them. Ask questions about delivery and installation. There is still time left in the fair, but it is a limited window, and Eastern has an experienced team there ready to help.”

2026 Regular-Season Champion Matt Hagan Carries NHRA Points Lead into St. Louis in American Rebel Light Beer Funny Car

Company Update

 

WIN HAGAN WIN! WIN REBEL LIGHT WIN! Four-time world champion chases title No. 5 as American Rebel Light takes the primary sponsorship spotlight; American Rebel Holdings, Inc. (OTCID: AREB) CEO Andy Ross to attend October 2-4 Midwest Nationals with FOX and FS1 coverage.

 

NASHVILLE, TN AND MADISON, IL / ACCESS Newswire / October 2, 2026 / American Rebel Holdings, Inc. (OTCID:AREB), creator of American Rebel Light Beer - America’s Patriotic Beer - is bringing its brand to the center of the championship battle as primary sponsor of Matt Hagan’s American Rebel Light Beer Dodge//SRT Hellcat Funny Car at the 15th annual NAPA Auto Parts NHRA Midwest Nationals, October 2-4 at World Wide Technology Raceway near St. Louis.

 

 

 

Hagan arrives as the 2026 NHRA Funny Car regular-season champion, a four-time world champion pursuing his fifth title, and the current championship points leader following his September 27 victory at Rockingham Dragway. NHRA reported an 84-point advantage over Jordan Vandergriff after Rockingham, with four races remaining in the season entering this weekend.

 

American Rebel Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Andy Ross plans to attend in support of Hagan and Tony Stewart Racing (TSR Nitro), bringing the Company’s leadership directly into a race weekend built around championship competition, national television and the fans who make motorsports a natural home for the brand.

 

 

 

 

WIN HAGAN WIN.

 

FOUR WORLD TITLES. ONE TRUE AMERICAN REBEL. THE CHASE FOR FIVE.

 

“Matt Hagan is a true American Rebel. He knows how to work, he knows how to win, and he knows a championship is earned by an entire team,” said Andy Ross, Chairman and CEO of American Rebel Holdings, Inc. “He has the regular-season title, he is coming off another victory, and this weekend he is carrying the points lead and American Rebel Light Beer into St. Louis. We are proud to stand with Matt, Tony Stewart and the TSR crew, and I will be there cheering them on. Win Hagan Win! Rebel Up!”

 

A champion’s season. A team still hungry for more.

 

Hagan’s 2026 national-event victories have come at Pomona, Bristol, Brainerd and Rockingham. His August 23 Brainerd victory was a signature American Rebel moment: he drove the American Rebel Light Beer Funny Car to the win and the points lead.

 

 

 

At the U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis, Hagan secured the regular-season championship while advancing to the final round. A runner-up finish at Martin followed, then victory at Rockingham - four consecutive final-round appearances heading into St. Louis.

 

The Rockingham win was the 59th of Hagan’s NHRA Funny Car career. He defeated Paul Lee in the final with a 3.922-second pass at 327.75 mph, extending the momentum of a team pursuing a fifth world championship together.

 

As Hagan said in TSR’s published Rockingham recap: “I want to win this fifth championship not just for me but for my crew chief and the team.”

 

That team-first approach is central to American Rebel’s connection with Hagan. The Virginia cattle rancher brings a working-person’s identity to the highest level of Funny Car competition, while crew chief Mike Knudsen, co-crew chief Phil Shuler and the TSR team do the demanding work behind every pass. American Rebel sees that combination of hard work, determination and respect for the team as the character of a true American Rebel.

 

Hagan Back to St. Louis. Back in American Rebel colors driving the American Rebel Beer Dodge/SRT Hellcat for Tony Stewart Racing

 

St. Louis adds another chapter to the story. Hagan returns as the defending Midwest Nationals winner after taking the American Rebel-branded Funny Car to victory at the event in 2025. He has won at the track three times, in 2021, 2023 and 2025. This weekend he returns with American Rebel Light Beer in the primary position and another world championship in his sights.

 

 

 

 

The Midwest Nationals is the third of six events in NHRA’s Countdown to the Championship. The regular-season championship is already earned; the 2026 world championship remains to be decided. Every qualifying session and elimination round is another opportunity to advance the chase.

 

A relationship built over seasons, not one weekend

 

American Rebel’s relationship with TSR began with a multi-year agreement announced in 2023. Since then, the relationship has grown to include American Rebel Light Beer sponsorship in Funny Car with Hagan and in Top Fuel with Leah Pruett and Tony Stewart as drivers in their respective seasons. Stewart is the owner of TSR Nitro.

 

This weekend’s primary American Rebel Light Beer focus is Hagan’s Funny Car. The broader relationship gives the brand an established motorsports history; Hagan’s current championship pursuit gives fans a compelling reason to follow the next chapter.

 

 

 

America’s Patriotic Beer. A true American Rebel.

 

American Rebel believes motorsports is a natural gathering place for adult fans who value hard work, independence, competition and pride in country. Its message is unapologetic: American Rebel Light Beer - America’s Patriotic, God-Fearing, Constitution-Loving, National Anthem-Singing, Stand Your Ground Beer.

 

“We believe patriotic Americans who love this country and love great racing deserve a great beer that stands for something,” Ross said. “American Rebel Light is about pride in America and enjoying the moments that bring us together. Matt brings the grit. TSR brings the teamwork. The fans bring the energy. We are proud sponsors of Matt Hagan and TSR and are thrilled to have American Rebel Light Beer be a part the championship chase. Rebel Up!”

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Company’s objective is to connect the visibility of its racing program with adult-consumer engagement, distributor and retailer support, and greater awareness of the publicly traded company behind the brand. Fans who discover American Rebel Light Beer through Hagan and TSR can also learn about American Rebel Holdings, Inc. (OTCID: AREB) through the Company’s public releases and SEC filings.

 

Watch the chase on FOX and FS1

 

Sunday’s FOX coverage is scheduled adjacent to football programming, giving American Rebel’s championship-weekend story a timely connection to the sports-viewing occasion behind its recent “Fly Rebel Fly” campaign. The new racing rally is simple: Win Hagan Win.

Words such as “believes,” “plans,” “expects,” “intends,” “seeks,” “may” and “will” can identify these statements, but their absence does not make a statement historical.

 

These statements reflect current plans and assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual outcomes may differ materially because of race results, mechanical failures, accidents, injuries, weather, schedule changes, broadcast or editorial decisions, changes in sponsorship or driver arrangements, limitations on promotional rights, consumer preferences, competition, product availability, distributor and retailer execution, manufacturing or supply-chain interruptions, alcohol advertising and distribution requirements, and the Company’s financial and operational resources. Company-level risks include access to capital, liquidity and indebtedness, operating losses and going-concern uncertainty, potential dilution, the execution of its business plan, and volatility or limited liquidity in its securities, together with other risks described in its SEC filings, including its most recent Form 10-K and subsequent Forms 10-Q and 8-K and any amendments.

National broadcast availability is not a measurement of American Rebel-specific impressions. No audience size, sales conversion or investor-conversion result is represented in this release. Historical race results do not predict future results, and no 2026 world championship has been assured. Forward-looking statements speak only as of this release’s date; the Company undertakes no obligation to update them except as required by law.

Company Update

 

American Rebel Light Beer featured as the Primary Sponsor on Matt Hagan’s American Rebel Light Beer Dodge Hellcat Funny Car celebrates Hagan earning five qualifying bonus points, two round wins and a St. Louis semifinal finish as the 2026 regular-season champion, Matt Hagan pursues his fifth world title. Win Hagan Win!

 

NASHVILLE, TN / ACCESS Newswire / October 6, 2026 / American Rebel Holdings, Inc. (OTCID:AREB ), creator of American Rebel Light Beer - America’s Patriotic, God Fearing, Constitution Loving, National Anthem Singing, Stand Your Ground Beer - today congratulated Matt Hagan on a semifinal finish at the NAPA Auto Parts NHRA Midwest Nationals, where the four-time Funny Car world champion collected five qualifying bonus points, won two elimination rounds and left St. Louis atop the unofficial championship standings driving the American Rebel Light Beer Dodge//SRT Hellcat Funny Car .

 

Hagan exits World Wide Technology Raceway with 2,402 points and a 72-point advantage over Jordan Vandergriff, according to NHRA’s unofficial post-event standings . With three races remaining, the 2026 regular-season champion continues his pursuit of world championship number five - and American Rebel Light Beer has been a part of that championship story.

 

 

 

“Matt came into St. Louis with the points lead, put American Rebel Light Beer into the semifinals and left with the field still chasing him,” said Andy Ross, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of American Rebel Holdings, Inc. “He earned points in qualifying, won two rounds on Sunday and kept fighting. That is what we love about Matt Hagan. He is a true American Rebel, and we are proud to have our name on his car as he goes after his fifth world championship. Win Hagan Win! Win Rebel Win! “

 

 

 

 

American Rebel Matt Hagan. Five bonus points. Two round wins. Still No. 1.

 

Hagan qualified third with a best elapsed time of 3.882 seconds and earned five bonus qualifying points before Sunday’s eliminations. He then defeated Terry Haddock with a 3.935-second run at 331.12 mph and Spencer Hyde with a 3.925-second pass at 331.28 mph, advancing the American Rebel Light Beer Funny Car into the final four.

 

His bid for the event victory ended against Vandergriff in the semifinals after the car lost traction shortly after launch. In TSR’s race recap , Hagan described a supercharger change before that round and acknowledged how demanding the championship fight has become. The semifinal setback ended his day, but not his place at the top of the standings.

 

“We had a great weekend in this American Rebel Light Beer Dodge Funny Car, nothing to hang our heads about,” Hagan said in TSR’s published recap.

 

The result keeps the focus on the next opportunity rather than an assured outcome. Hagan’s advantage over Vandergriff stands at 72 points, while St. Louis winner Austin Prock is 106 points back in third. The championship remains open, and Hagan heads to Texas with the lead to defend.

Regular-season champion. Four world titles. The chase for five. Matt Hagan, True American Rebel

 

Hagan has already secured the 2026 NHRA Funny Car regular-season championship , earning the top seed for the six-race Countdown to the Championship at the U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis. That achievement is separate from the season-ending world championship now being contested. St. Louis marked the halfway point of the Countdown, leaving Texas, Las Vegas and Pomona to settle the title.

 

 

 

 

His four national-event victories this season have come at the Winternationals in Pomona, the Thunder Valley Nationals in Bristol, the Brainerd Nationals and the Nationals at The Rock. The September 27 Rockingham win was the 59th of his Funny Car career and his fourth consecutive final-round appearance entering St. Louis. Those results give the championship pursuit a season-long foundation, not just a strong weekend.

 

For American Rebel , Brainerd remains a standout moment : Hagan drove the American Rebel Light Beer Funny Car to victory on August 23 and took over the points lead. He beat Vandergriff in that final after eliminating Prock in the semifinals. The same two competitors now closest behind him in the unofficial standings were part of that American Rebel-branded victory.

 

 

 

A fifth world title would add to Hagan’s championships in 2011, 2014, 2020 and 2023. NHRA has noted that it would also make him only the second driver, alongside John Force, to reach five Funny Car world championships. He brings that experience into the final three events. Nothing is clinched; that is precisely what makes the final three races a compelling next chapter.

 

TSR: The team behind every NHRA race featuring American Rebel

 

American Rebel recognizes Tony Stewart Racing and the people whose preparation and dedication make each competitive run possible. Crew chief Mike Knudsen, Phil Shuler, Alex Conaway and the Hagan crew have helped put the Funny Car program in position to contend for another title. Hagan has repeatedly credited that group and the working environment at TSR for its success. American Rebel’s relationship with the organization dates to a multiyear agreement announced in 2023, establishing a connection that extends well beyond a single race weekend.

 

 

 

 

 

 

TSR’s Leah Pruett debuts Pellera colors, leaves St. Louis fourth in the unofficial standings

 

In Top Fuel, TSR’s Leah Pruett debuted a new purple Pellera primary livery and left St. Louis fourth in the unofficial standings. Pruett qualified eighth, earned three qualifying bonus points and defeated Kyle Wurtzel in the opening round before losing to eventual event winner Shawn Langdon in the quarterfinals. She and her crew worked through mechanical challenges. American Rebel congratulates Pruett and the team on their effort and looks forward to cheering them through the remaining championship events alongside Hagan’s Funny Car campaign.

  

American Rebel on the car(s) provides valuable visibility to the Motorsports fans and potential customers for American Rebel

 

American Rebel’s motorsports strategy is intended to connect racing visibility with adult-consumer discovery, distributor and retailer engagement, and awareness of American Rebel Holdings, Inc. (OTCID:AREB). Hagan’s championship pursuit gives those audiences an ongoing story to follow and a recognizable product to connect with the Company behind it, even between the race weekends.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Company believes the sport’s emphasis on determination, independence and pride in country fits the identity displayed on its cans: “ America’s Patriotic, God-Fearing, Constitution-Loving, National Anthem-Singing, Stand Your Ground Beer.” Fans discovering the brand through TSR can learn about the beer through the American Rebel Beer website and evaluate the public company through its announcements and SEC filings.

 

A season to be proud of. A finish still to fight for. It’s time to ‘Rebel Up!” through the finish

 

“We are proud of this season supporting TSR, Matt and Leah through primary and associate sponsorship roles,” Ross added. “We have celebrated victories and watched these teams fight each round for every point and the round win. We look ahead to three races, with Matt chasing history and the American Rebel family cheering him on.”
