Black Owned Genetics (BOG) is a premium cannabis brand born in Kansas City, Missouri, in 2022. BOG is more than a cannabis company—it’s a movement to bring representation, culture, and excellence into an industry that has historically excluded the very people who helped shape it.
The journey of Black Owned Genetics began with a deep passion for cannabis and a vision to change how the industry represents culture and community. What started as curiosity about the plant evolved into a mission to cultivate excellence and equality.
Cannabis prohibition in the United States dates back to the early 1900s, when fear-based and racially charged campaigns portrayed cannabis as a dangerous drug associated with minority communities. These harmful narratives fueled decades of criminalization, disproportionately affecting Black Americans—even though consumption rates were nearly identical across racial groups.
When legalization began spreading across the U.S., the communities most impacted by prohibition were often excluded from the new, thriving cannabis market. Black Owned Genetics was born to challenge that reality—to ensure representation, ownership, and opportunity within an industry built on resilience and creativity.
The name Black Owned Genetics is intentional and powerful. While Black communities are among the highest consumers of cannabis, they remain underrepresented in cultivation, processing, and brand ownership. BOG exists to bridge that gap—showcasing that Black excellence and innovation deserve to lead the cannabis space.
After years of dedication, research, and cultivation, Black Owned Genetics entered the Missouri Cannabis Cup in 2025 and proudly earned 1st Place. This victory symbolized more than success in competition—it was proof that BOG stands among the best in the industry.
