INDIANAPOLIS (June 4, 2024) – Lucas Oil Products, the world leader and distributor of high-performance automotive additives and lubricants, announced that the Philadelphia Union has joined Inter Miami and the LA Galaxy as part of the Lucas family for the 2024 Major League Soccer season. ANC, the company’s visual display and digital signage agency for more than 10 years, enables the partnership and branding across the teams’ vibrant stadiums.
As the Official Oil and Additive for all three teams, which includes digital signage at home games, a wide range of new demographics will experience Lucas’ hard-charging lifestyle – also reflected with the brand’s presence in motorsports and other American sports like the NFL. MLS’ explosive growth and the massive global popularity of soccer gives Lucas Oil the opportunity to share its story with new audiences.
“Major League Soccer and the sport’s values of teamwork, excellence and community engagement align perfectly with Lucas Oil’s brand values,” said Melissa Wonser, Vice President of Marketing for Lucas Oil. “Soccer fans are some of the most energetic and passionate on Earth, and we’ve seen that first hand through the LA Galaxy and Inter Miami – elevated even more with the arrival of Lionel Messi and prominent players from Europe. With the addition of the Philadelphia Union and the rapid growth of the MLS, we’re greatly enhancing market presence and sharing how Lucas products benefit everyday drivers, gig economy workers, fleets and everyone in between.”
“We are thrilled to continue our relationship with Lucas Oil and take this integration to the next level for the LA Galaxy fan base,” said Josh Veilleux, Senior Vice President of AEG Global Partnerships. “Lucas Oil’s commitment to customer satisfaction and superior products aligns perfectly with our club’s ethos and our focus on delivering the best for the best fans in MLS.
