In addition to being responsible for the strategy and performance of Rockstar Energy, Daing will lead Emerging Growth, including non-RTD energy and other functional beverage products.
"We have built Celsius Holdings into a scaled, multi-brand total energy portfolio, with three powerful brands that each have distinct roles, consumer segments and opportunities for growth," Fieldly said. "This new brand-led structure is the next step in how we align the Company to capture those opportunities, bringing our leaders closer to the brands and consumers they serve, while leveraging the strength and enterprise capabilities of Celsius Holdings to drive strong execution at retail."
Zigliara said, "I’m excited to lead the CELSIUS brand in the U.S. at such an important point in the brand’s trajectory. CELSIUS has built an incredibly strong brand and loyal consumer following, and I believe there is significant opportunity to build on that momentum and unlock the next phase of growth."
Daing added, "I know firsthand the significant potential of Rockstar Energy and the disruptive opportunities that I believe are ahead of it. I'm thrilled to step into this new role and build on Rockstar's iconic brand heritage, bringing renewed focus, innovation and commercial execution to reinvigorate the Rockstar brand in the U.S. and Canada and drive future growth."
In addition to the appointments announced today, the Company is conducting a search to appoint a President of Alani Nu.
The three business units will operate as part of one connected Celsius Holdings platform, leveraging shared marketing, sales, operations and corporate capabilities.
