disrupting the liquid refreshment beverage industry with great
tasting, zero sugar beverages made with simple, plant-based
ingredients, today announced the appointment of Kirsten Suarez as
its Chief Marketing Officer (CMO).
Ms. Suarez brings to Zevia over 20 years of experience in
marketing and brand-building with leading consumer-packaged goods
(CPG) and quick-service restaurant (QSR) companies including Taco
Bell and Procter & Gamble. During her most recent role as CMO
at N!CK’S, a Swedish-born, better-for-you growth-stage food company
delivering no sugar added products, she led omnichannel marketing,
and the brand was named to Bain & Company’s List of 2023
Insurgent Brands in recognition of delivering high growth. As
Zevia’s CMO, she is responsible for leading the development and
execution of marketing strategies to drive Zevia’s core growth
initiatives and build the Zevia brand, and she reports to Amy
Taylor, President and CEO of Zevia.
“Kirsten is an outstanding addition to our leadership team,”
said Taylor. “We are excited to have her onboard to spearhead an
expanded role for marketing as part of our brand refresh and growth
strategy. She brings an entrepreneurial mindset along with a proven
track record of success driving revenue growth and profitability
through brand-building, portfolio management and great consumer
marketing. Kirsten also has a deep understanding of the Zevia
customer, better-for-you foods and mainstream CPG and is equally
passionate about our mission.”
Prior to N!CK’S, Suarez served as executive-level Marketing
Director for Taco Bell, where she developed and managed
multi-company partnerships, oversaw product innovation including
beverage and led holistic marketing for multiple product lines.
Before joining Taco Bell, Ms. Suarez spent over a decade at Procter
& Gamble, where she held progressive roles of responsibility
within Marketing from 2008 to 2019 and was involved in multiple new
ventures and global branding initiatives. Suarez holds a BBA in
Marketing and Psychology from the University of Miami’s Herbert
Business School and an MBA in Marketing Strategy from the Emory
University’s Goizueta Business School.
“The Zevia brand has strong momentum and even greater potential,
and I’m thrilled to be joining the Company at such an exciting
time,” said Suarez. “I look forward to working alongside such a
talented team driven by a mission focused on improving the health
of the individuals and communities we touch.”
