QualityStocks would like to highlight KonaRed Corporation (OTCQB: KRED), focused on bringing the health and wellness attributes of Hawaiian Coffee fruit to the masses. KonaRed Corporation has developed an innovative, state of the art, proprietary process that produces extracts and powders from Hawaiian Coffee Fruit which are used in its Antioxidant Juices, Organic Green Teas, Coconut Waters, and On-the-Go Packets. The company is headquartered in Koloa, Hawaii, and its products are sold in select Whole Foods, Safeway, Sprouts, Wal-Mart, 7-Eleven, and many other retail outlets throughout the US and Canada.

In the company’s news,

KonaRed Corporation announced that John Dawe will take on the role of CFO and that Bill Van Dyke has been named to the company’s Board of Directors. Shaun Roberts, CEO and President of KonaRed Corporation, made the announcements.

With more than 30 years of financial, business, and executive level experience, Dawe has previously served as Treasurer, VP Finance, and CEO for various finance-related entities since 1993. His most recent endeavor at DAS Corporate Services (2002-2014) found him responsible for the maintenance and creation of reporting and accounting systems for a number of US publicly traded companies.

Dawe will be succeeding Dana Roberts, who will be leaving the role in order to concentrate on Malie, Inc., a company she founded in 2004 that specializes specifically in all natural luxury beauty and spa products.

Van Dyke has been the chairman and CEO of B&D Nutritional Ingredients since 2003. As the founder, he has been the force behind B&D’s development into a full-service, North American marketing and sales company. Van Dyke has an impressive background in sales and marketing within the dietary supplement industry that spans more than 20 years. As the Council for Responsible Nutrition’s 2000-2002 Chairman, he has served on a variety of committees throughout his 20-year involvement with CRN. In addition, Van Dyke has sat on the board of directors for a number of other industry organizations.

“We are excited to have Bill Van Dyke and John Dawe on the KonaRed team, as they will bring more than two decades of financial, sales and marketing expertise to our Company,” stated Roberts.
