Our story

Tempo Crackers launched in June 2020 with a simple yet revolutionary question: why can't edibles be savory instead of sweet? Founded by Robert Holland, a Texas native who grew up in the "snack belt" near Frito-Lay headquarters, the brand was born from his passion for bold flavors and innovative textures that defined modern snacking.Starting as an LGBTQ-owned company in Los Angeles, Tempo quickly gained recognition for being the first brand to create precision-dosed savory edibles in California's cannabis market. The brand secured significant funding from manufacturing partner Punch Edibles in 2023 to support rapid expansion and new retailer partnerships.In April 2024, Tempo achieved a major milestone when Punch Edibles & Extracts acquired the company, officially adding it to their family of brands while maintaining Holland as creative director. The brand has continued to innovate, launching high-potency solventless hash products and expanding from the original cracker concept into a broader savory snacks portfolio. Today, Tempo products are available in licensed dispensaries across California, Oklahoma, and New York.
