We’re Hungry for More: af&co. is Officially Expanding to Southern California

We’re bringing our award-winning PR and marketing expertise to Los Angeles and the Southern California region.

We are thrilled to announce that af&co. is officially expanding into Southern California with a brand-new Los Angeles office! For 20 years, we’ve been at the forefront of lifestyle marketing and public relations, shaping the success of hospitality, food & beverage, lifestyle brands, and travel & destination clients. While we’ve long worked in the SoCal market, this expansion marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter – one that fulfills a lifelong dream for our founder, Andrew Freeman, and brings our signature creativity, strategy, and results-driven approach even closer to the heart of LA.

Our new SoCal office means even more buzzworthy launches, unforgettable events, and game-changing strategies for restaurants, hotels, and lifestyle brands across California. Our agency’s proven track record of increasing foot traffic, reservations, and visibility for our clients – along with our nationally-recognized Annual Trends Report, produced in partnership with af&co.’s sister agency, Carbonate, – has set us apart as a leader throughout the west coast.

“We’ve worked in the SoCal market for over 20 years and always planned on opening an official office there. When the pandemic hit, those plans were put on hold. Now, as we approach our 20th anniversary this November, we’re proud to say that the time is right. Thanks to the flexibility of remote work, we were able to be nimble and establish an incredible SoCal-based team that continues to grow, and have several projects in LA.” said Andrew Freeman, CEO and Founder, af&co. “What I’m most proud of is that, after two decades, our agency continues to evolve. With the launch of our LA office, our West Coast presence is stronger than ever. The LA market is rich with opportunities, media, and influencers, and we’re ready to service our clients locally, regionally, and nationally from both of California’s major cities.”

With the opening of our Los Angeles office, af&co. will continue leveraging our deep industry knowledge, creative expertise, and strategic insights to help clients navigate the evolving hospitality landscape. Whether building brand awareness through media relations or influencer marketing, partnerships and activations or generating buzz through social media strategy, we are excited to bring our signature blend of creativity and measurable results to the vibrant Southern California region.
