We’re excited to announce that we have just finalized the acquisition of Bac’n by the good folks over at BaconFreak.com.
Rocco and his great team at BaconFreak.com will continue to run the site as-is and existing customers will see the same great service you’ve come to expect from Bac’n.
We launched Bacn.com just under a year ago and since then we have had an amazing time building this great site and the community that has built up around it. We can’t thank everyone enough but we have to give a few shout outs:
- Pete Grillo for telling us to follow our pork … err dreams
- Holly Glaspey for whipping up the most fantastic branding on-a-whim ever
- For everyone that came out for MasterBacon one year ago to help kick off the Bac’n craze
- Phantom Chicken for keeping our threads looking amazing over the last year
- All of our amazing suppliers from Beeler’s, Broadbent, Scott’s Hams, Mountain Products Smokehouse to Western Boxed Meats
- Darin Richardson and the Refresh Media crew for making our site look amazing
- Belinda Strange for coming up with the idea for the Bac’n Babe of the Month
- Akasha Becker for taking it over the finish line in the past few months doing fulfillment for us
Its been one amazing ride for myself, Jason and Michael. Jason and I are starting work on the book about launching the company: “Makin’ Bac’n: From idea to startup in 21 days”. Look for that coming via Peach Pit Press this Spring at your favorite book retailers everywhere (and of course right here at bacn.com).
Jason is off to work on Paleo Plan while Michael and Scott will continue to push the Urban Airship.

I’m experiencing a problem getting your blog feed to operate in the latest IE9, is there a trick to it?

Hi there, I found your web site via Google even as searching for a related topic, your site came up, it appears great. I have bookmarked it in my google bookmarks.

This is the right blog for this. It’s kinda hard to disagree(not that I actually would want to…luz). You definitely put a new twist to a topic thats been written about over and over.
