California-based Dr. Bronner’s announced the departure of current Vice President of Global Sales, Mike Stacy. After 12 years at Dr. Bronner’s, Stacy has accepted a leadership position at Indigo Wild (Missouri), maker of Zum natural products for the home and body. His official last day at Dr. Bronner’s will be February 1, 2019. Dr. Bronner’s executive team has assembled a transition team headed by CEO David Bronner and President Michael Bronner to lead the sales department while the company evaluates internal and external candidates to best lead the department going forward.

Dr. Bronner’s senior sales managers, Gina Coccari and Marc DeRosa will play key roles in this transition, continuing to lead natural and mass market sales respectively. Promoted earlier last year, the two of them have already assumed control of most sales functions and have been keystones to Dr. Bronner’s growth and new account acquisition and management.

“It’s an understatement to say that Mike has done right by us: we have grown from under $20 million in annual revenue to over $120 million under his tenure. Mike is our dear friend and a true force of nature. He has mentored an incredible team of people and built an amazing well-oiled sales machine that will continue to rock and take us to the next level. While we are sad to see him go, we will continue to effectively sell and distribute our products to people everywhere,” said David Bronner, CEO of Dr. Bronner’s.
