About Us

American International Industries, Inc. (OTCBB: AMIN) is a growing investment organization that takes an active role in the companies it invests in to foster growth and profitability through its financial resources and its management expertise.  American International has interests in Industry, Finance, Real Estate and Oil & Gas.

American International acts as a professional and financial partner to improve its subsidiary's access to capital, market share and revenues. The company's business strategy is based on two distinct concepts; control combined with active management assistance and financial partnerships.

The combination of these concepts is based on efficient and smooth integration of American International's designated management team and proven procedures into each company. Even in cases where American International acquires controlling interest of a company, it still practices gradual transition, thus ensuring the support of the company's long-term shareholders.

By operating as a holding company, American International serves both as a financial and professional business savvy partner for its subsidiaries. Its role is to improve each portfolio company's access to potential capital, help them benefit from the economics of scale through the consolidation of administrative functions, and to provide universal access to the financial and management expertise of each company's corporate personnel.

American International Industries, Inc. (AMIN), the holding company, has its own portfolio of diversified investments such as cash, receivables, stocks portfolio, etc.  In addition, AMIN, as a holding company, owns four (4) operating companies, Delta Seaboard International, Inc. (“providing services to the oil & gas industry”), Brenham Oil & Gas, Corp. (“engaged in the acquisition of petroleum resources”), Northeastern Plastics, Inc. (“supplier of automotive aftermarket & electrical products”) and American International Texas Properties, Inc. (“investments” in Real Estate). Each of the above described operating subsidiaries has its own management team, revenues and profits base; however, AMIN the holding company itself derives its own profits primarily from the sale of assets, which sale of assets may depend on market conditions, USA and world economic conditions, and other unforeseen factors.  The holding company costs of operating are substantial, such as home office, general and administrative, professional, accounting and auditing fees, governance, compliance costs and the cost of a responsible Board of Directors and related expenses.  Since its inception, and over twelve (12) years, AMIN acquired and sold operating companies, real estate, and other investments, with most sales of its assets resulting in profits.

American International's management team and its subsidiaries management teams have acquired substantial experience and expertise in the industries its portfolio companies operate in. This allows it to significantly contribute to the development and expansion of each business' operations. This creative mentor-type relationship is reinforced further by American International's extensive participation in each company's board of directors.
