Health-Ade Names Beverage Industry Heavy Hitter Caroline Levy to The Board

LOS ANGELES, March 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Health-Ade, makers of feel-good, bubbly beverages with gut health benefits, announced today the addition of beverage industry veteran Caroline Levy to the Health-Ade Board. 

As a seasoned beverage and cosmetic industry expert and equity analyst, Levy brings with her more than twenty-five years of consumer stock expertise, deep industry knowledge, extensive networks with both broad institutional client relationships and long-standing high-level c-suite connections. 

"I am delighted to announce the addition of Caroline Levy to the Health-Ade Board," said Jack Belsito, CEO of Health-Ade, "Caroline is an accomplished financial executive with extremely strong ties to the beverage industry.  Having known Caroline for some time, I am confident she will be a great addition and key asset for Health-Ade as we move forward on our journey." 

This addition to the Board follows a standout year for Health-Ade, in which the brand grew 10x versus the kombucha category, expanded its footprint both within conventional grocery but also to prominent food service accounts, and launched 2 impressive rebrands of their core Health-Ade kombucha line as well as their Health-Ade Pop prebiotic soda offering.  Following the August 2021 transaction to ownership under FirstBev and Manna Tree and the new leadership of Jack Belsito, Caroline's appointment to the Board is expected to contribute to the company's ambitions of expanding their global footprint and continuing to reach new consumers stateside.

Caroline has analyzed and provided investment guidance on equities including The Coca-Cola Company, PepsiCo, Coca-Cola European Partners, Keurig Dr. Pepper, Monster, AB InBev, Diageo, and more. She currently sits on the board at Celsius Holdings Inc., an energy beverage company making waves in the category. With her addition, Health-Ade is excited to take the brand to the next level as they continue to bring both Health-Ade, and the kombucha category at large, towards mainstream visibility.
