About Us
Active Products Inc. headquartered in Toronto; Ontario Canada is a fast-growing product design and sales firm in the consumer durables category focused on automotive aftercare and restyling. We are in the process of building scalable operations to support our expanding business across B2B and D2C (Omni-channel commerce) channels across North America.
