How Chris Ball Scaled with Purpose—and Capital That Kept Up

Most cannabis operators didn’t come up running product across international borders or getting picked up in a federal sting. Chris Ball did. A former Canadian Football League player who served time for trafficking, he went on to earn one of L.A.’s first social equity licenses—and build a beloved, vertically integrated cannabis brand from legacy roots to legitimacy.

 

Ball’s reputation is well earned. But what keeps the brand moving is a sharp operator making smart choices behind the scenes. Flexible capital played a role in that momentum.

Chris Ball, CEO Ball Family Farms

As Ball Family Farms began scaling, Chris needed funding that moved at his speed—without compromising control. That’s where FundCanna came in. The first round financed high-efficiency lighting. Later rounds helped him stay liquid, invest with confidence, and keep the business moving forward. Over two years, he tapped four rounds of financing that matched the rhythm of his growth.

 

In that window, Ball Family Farms grew more than 45%. The brand continues expanding its genetics, deepening its California footprint, and building toward long-term impact.
