THE MANGO TANGO STORY
Founded in late 2003 by two industry insiders, Mango Tango offers a novel choice in computer cases -- and related accessories -- to fashion-starved, computer-carrying women.
The fashionable yet functional Mango Tango's computer case line is inspired by designer handbags, and features pieces fabricated from a vibrant assortment of colors and textiles including faux leather and suede, faux crocodile and lizard, and assorted metallic and canvas fabrications. The line is currently available at luggage and computer retailers, department and specialty stores, as well as boutiques nationwide.
