FRESNO, Calif., Feb. 15, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Black Castle Developments Holdings, Inc. (Pink Sheets: [ BCDH ]), a holding company targeting the acquisition of undervalued, niche companies, announced today that it has completed its strategic acquisition of A-Shine, a pioneer in glass polishing technology for the global restaurant and hospitality industry. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

The restaurant industry is the nation's second largest private sector employer. For 2012, industry sales are expected to reach a record high of $632 billion, a 3.5 percent increase over 2011, according to the National Restaurant Association. Jeff Holroyd, CEO and president of BCDH stated, "We are delighted to close this transaction and enter an industry that is growing above the national economy. A-Shine offers technology advances that enable restaurants, hotels, fine dining establishments and others in the hospitality industry to drive costs. This acquisition provides the potential for substantial top- and bottom-line growth as we bring A-Shine's product innovation to large and profitable markets."

Aaron Rogers, the CEO of A-Shine Inc., said, "I am delighted to become part of the BCDH family. The unconventional and inefficient processes of glass polishing can be revolutionized with our innovative technology. This acquisition enables A-Shine to grow our customer base and demonstrate the need for significant cost reductions in our defined target markets. BCDH's strong capital base will help us achieve organic growth by servicing our North America clientele and then expanding our business internationally."

Mr. Holroyd added, "Given the reliability and quality of A-Shine Inc.'s technology and the expertise of its employees, this acquisition is an excellent addition to BCDH's portfolio. Now combined with our integrated portfolio, business platform, and access to an untapped global market share, BCDH is poised to add further shareholder value."
