Liquid Nutrition Group Inc. (Liquid Nutrition or Company) (TSXV: LQD and LQD.WT) today announced the appointments of David Bellisario to Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Greg Chamandy to Executive Chairman, effective immediately. <\/p>\n
In the role of COO, David Bellisario brings a lifetime of retail expertise. His most notable successes were running the family-owned chain of 45 gift stores called The Keyman before it was sold in 2012 to Things Remembered; and founding Teaopia in 2005, a premier loose-leaf tea retailer, that grew to 48 locations before he sold the enterprise in June 2012 to Teavana (subsequently sold to Starbucks). Bellisario will be responsible for all aspects of the Companys retail operations including the leasing, merchandising, design, building and administration of the Liquid Nutrition stores. <\/p>\n
Bellisario coming on board as COO means that President and CEO Glenn Young will now focus on developing Liquid Nutritions brand potential and growth strategy through both franchise sales and licensed products. <\/p>\n
Both Mr. Bellisario and Mr. Young will report to Greg Chamandy. Mr. Chamandy's role with the Company will be expanding from Chairman to Executive Chairman. <\/p>\n
