On September 7, 2021, PlantX Life (CSE: VEGA) (Frankfurt: WNT1) (OTCQB: PLTXF) announced the appointment of Mr. Fred Leigh as a director and Executive Chairman of the company’s Board of Directors, effective immediately (https://nnw.fm/LzRyw).
Mr. Leigh’s appointment follows PlantX’s move to grow its market presence and overall market reach. This is marked by its investment in e-commerce, along with product diversification, as seen with its alcoholic beverage line (https://nnw.fm/kQEox). The company looks to capitalize on Mr. Leigh’s expertise in the industry, along with his knowhow to steer the company forward and help achieve even bigger and more ambitious goals in the future.
While confirming his appointment, Mr. Leigh noted:
“I always look to be involved in scalable business models with potential, a focused vision and dedication to making a positive difference. I enjoy working along with strong founders who are dedicated, passionate and fully committed to their work.”
He further added:
“With Sean Dollinger as the relentless founder and the amazing PlantX team, I am honored to act and serve as Executive Chairman of PlantX.”
Mr. Leigh previously served on the company’s Advisory Board. Additionally, he has over 40 years of experience in capital markets. Mr. Leigh has also founded and served in key executive roles within various companies that have since gone public. With his appointment as PlantX’s Executive Chairman, the company trusts that Mr. Leigh will offer leadership and lend the knowledge that he has gained over his years in the industry.
The Advisory Board, which Mr. Leigh previously chaired, has since been dissolved. PlantX’s management noted that his appointment as Executive Chairman would mitigate the effects of this dissolution while also offering additional cost savings for the company. Mr. Leigh joins the rest of PlantX’s Board of Directors, including Lorne Rapkin, Peter Simeon, Quinn Field-Dyte, Ralph Moxness, and Alex Hoffman.
