The position was previously held by Frederic Stoeckel, who resigned to return to his native France and spend more time with his family. He will remain with the company as a member of its board.
“I’m honored to take on a greater leadership role within Algenist,” said Fernandez. “Since starting with the brand, the focus has been on growing our share in the marketplace by leveraging the brand’s clear strengths: sustainably produced algae, and clean and sophisticated formulas that deliver results in 10 days, every time. We have a team of people that are passionate about our customers and our products, which is paralleled with our ambition to lead us to ultimate success.”
