NEW YORK a - Twinlab on Thursday announced the appointment of Naomi Whittel as its new president and CEO, effective immediately.  


 


Tom Tolworthy, who previously held the position of president and CEO, has moved on from the company to pursue other ventures and leaves Twinlab under the stewardship of Whittel.


 


"Our Board sincerely thanks Tom for his leadership and the many contributions he made on behalf of our company for the past several years," stated David Van Andel, chairman of the board of directors. "We are thrilled to be starting a new chapter with Naomi, who joined us following our acquisition of Organic Holdings last October. The board believes Naomi is the right person to execute the vision for Twinlab and build a best in class business over the long-term." 


 


"I'm very excited for the upcoming year as we have significant opportunities ahead of us," Whittel said. "Our combined product offering has never been stronger and we have well established and long-standing customer relationships in place. We also have great people and one of my primary goals is to better leverage our resources to drive sales and provide best-in-class products for the end-consumer," she said. "Twinlab maintains partnerships with some of the great retailers in this industry and we intend to maximize these relationships, while driving innovation."
