Monster Beverage Acquires Bang Energy Assets From Bankruptcy Proceedings

By Ben Glickman

 

Monster Beverage said Monday it would acquire bankrupt beverage maker Bang Energy.

The Corona, Calif.-based producer of Monster Energy drinks said it had entered into an agreement to acquire Bang Energy's assets from parent company Vital Pharmaceuticals, including a production facility in Phoenix.

Monster Beverage didn't disclose the terms of the agreement but said in a June 28 U.S. bankruptcy court filing that it would pay $362 million to acquire Bang and its assets. The proposed deal is still subject to approval by the court.

Bang filed for Chapter 11 protections in October 2022.
