The Bango Bites story begins in 2014 when brothers Ron and Matthew Ferraro launched Bango Distribution in California's legendary Emerald Triangle. What started as a medical cannabis cultivation venture in the golden hills of Northern California has evolved into one of the most respected vertically integrated cannabis companies on the West Coast.The Ferraro brothers built their empire the old-fashioned way—through bootstrap financing and pure determination, making Bango the largest cannabis company in California that operates without outside investors. This family-first approach allowed them to maintain complete control over quality while keeping prices accessible for everyday consumers.In 2022, Bango made history by becoming New Jersey's first exclusively adult-use cannabis cultivator, bringing their California expertise to the East Coast. The expansion from California to New Jersey represents a significant milestone, allowing them to serve cannabis consumers across both coasts with their signature approach of providing top-shelf cannabis at accessible prices.The launch of Bango Bites represents the perfect fusion of their cultivation mastery and commitment to innovation, creating premium edibles that deliver consistent experiences without the luxury markup.
