Founded in 1953 and headquartered in San Diego, California, the company initially sold only one product, WD-40 Multi-Use Product, for over four decades. This product serves as a lubricant, rust preventative, penetrant, and moisture displacer. Over several decades, the company expanded its product offerings through research and development and acquisitions, building a family of brands. WD-40 Company currently markets and sells its products in more than 176 countries and territories. Distribution channels include hardware stores, automotive parts outlets, industrial distributors and suppliers, mass retail and home center stores, value retailers, grocery stores, online retailers, warehouse club stores, farm supply stores, sport retailers, and independent bike dealers. The company's sales are generated from two product groups: maintenance products and homecare and cleaning products. Maintenance products are sold worldwide across North, Central, and South America, Asia, Australia, Europe, India, the Middle East, and Africa. Homecare and cleaning products are primarily sold in North America, the United Kingdom, and Australia.
