Local Roots, Global Impact

A word from Angelo Saliba, our Founder & Managing Director.

I grew up in a self‑employed family, where running a local business meant forging real connections and growing alongside our community.

At age five, I redesigned my dad’s pizza shop logo—planting the seed for the creative, people‑focused approach we now bring to businesses of every size at Bang, from local start‑ups to global brands.

We’re problem solvers who thrive on new challenges. We believe success starts with people, so we built a skilled team eager to learn, grow, and adapt.

Our mission is to help businesses thrive through creative, strategic marketing. We’re proud of the impact we’ve made—and we can’t wait to see what’s next.
