Neela is well-positioned to lead CVS Pharmacy today and into the future.”

Montgomery, currently a Board Partner at venture capital firm Greycroft, most recently served as chief executive officer of furniture retailer Crate & Barrel and has nearly 20 years of global retail experience. As CEO of Crate & Barrel, she transformed its online sales channel to more than 50 percent of the company’s total revenue. In 2019 she was named to the “Top Women in Retail” list by the Women in Retail Leadership Circle.

Increasingly these health care touch points will be digital, virtual and in-person. This is a fantastic opportunity to help accelerate the company’s bold vision to deliver consumer health services in the community and ensure CVS Pharmacy plays an essential role in customers’ health moments.”

The company, which will provide nearly 20 million flu vaccines this year, has reached agreements with the Department of Health and Human Services to provide COVID-19 vaccines to long-term care facilities and to the general population.

HeadsUp To Launch Proprietary iFundRaiser Online Platform

PR Newswire

LAS VEGAS, Nov. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ – HeadsUp Entertainment International Inc. (Pinksheets: HDUP.PK) is pleased to announce the launch of its proprietary new iFundRaiser platform.  This technology ecosystem has been developed to provide a solution for charities and organizations to quickly and inexpensively launch an end to end engagement system to raise funds and offer a next generation mechanism to its clients using digital gaming and media.

“The COVID-19 Pandemic and its affiliated severe negative economic impact has dramatically changed the world in many ways and charities have been one of the most impacted victims of the world’s new realities.  Golf tournaments, galas, speaking events and traditional fundraisers are no longer a viable means for most organizations to gather their benefactors and supporters to raise money for their causes and we have the answer” commented HeadsUp CEO Doug Wilson. “Using the tools we have with gaming licenses, digital technology, media production and payment processing we can deliver a complete solution.”

The iFundRaiser platform will be tailored to each client to build an embedded online experience for maximum exposure.  Whether the platform offers an online poker tournament, 50/50 draw, celebrity endorsement, online slot machine or casino game, daily fantasy sports contest, streaming virtual media event, auction or digital gaming experience, the HeadsUp product offers charity management a complete end to end solution to monetize their databases and supporters without the cost, time and experience of licensing and building gaming fundraising infrastructure.

“I have spent the last 30 years raising money for good causes, over $2 Billion to date, and this is the best product I have ever had the opportunity to introduce” stated HeadsUp Chief Business Development Officer Mark Hutchinson.  “I have already been able to bring major global partners to HeadsUp to allow us to do the hard work of raising money in very difficult times globally.”

Already in negotiation, the iFundRaiser opportunity has been presented to organizations from military to wildlife groups and from local to global organizations that will be able to plug into the digital gaming experience and go to market immediately with everything from draws, lottery, bingo, 50/50, watch and win, donate and win and play to win with iGaming products.

Designed to drive millions of followers to the HeadsUp sites and applications, the platform takes the risk away from its Charity clients and through licensed gaming and new media engagement tools does all the work in a safe, secure and innovative environment.

HeadsUp has engaged and partnered with several world-renowned partners to aggregate the operations under one roof and monetize it through revenue share agreements.  The estimates of traffic and dollar volume of funds raised from iFundRaiser are substantial.

The Company looks forward to announcing the first contracts to be executed within weeks. 

About HeadsUp Entertainment International Inc.

HeadsUp Entertainment International Inc. is a global gaming operator and media company focusing on online gaming, online poker, eSports, sports betting, online lottery, mobile 50/50, charity fundraising platforms and blockchain based payment solutions.

TRISCUIT Launches The Missing Ingredients Project, Committing $1M to Address the Challenges of Food Deserts and Help Improve Access to a Variety of Nutritious Foods Across America

Effort will award grants to local changemakers who are helping to solve the growing problem of missing food in their communities

PR Newswire

EAST HANOVER, N.J., Nov. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Today, TRISCUIT, a brand known for its woven, whole grain wheat crackers, announced the launch of The Missing Ingredients Project, the brand’s first-ever purpose-driven effort to help increase access to the variety of affordable, fresh foods lacking in food deserts. Through this initiative, TRISCUIT is committing $1 million in grant funding over the next three years to find and support individuals and non-profit organizations who are developing innovative ways to advance access to a variety of fresh, nourishing food in food deserts across the United States.

According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), approximately 19 million people— 6.2 percent of the United States population — live in food deserts. These are geographic areas, either urban or rural, where access to affordable, healthy food options, including fresh fruits and vegetables, is limited or non-existent. In food deserts, access is often restricted by several factors including distance to the grocery store, the number of stores in the area, family income and availability of transportation. According to the USDA, food deserts are described as low-income areas where at least 500 people, or at least 33 percent of the population, is greater than 1.0 mile from the nearest supermarket, supercenter, or large grocery store for an urban area or greater than 10 miles for a rural area1.

“The TRISCUIT brand has always been committed to weaving more nourishment into the world, and right now, millions of people live in areas where they cannot find essential nourishing ingredients needed for a balanced diet, only been made worse by the pandemic,” said Sally Barton, Senior Brand Manager, Mondelēz International. “It’s a crisis that demands our attention, and as a brand, we knew we had to take action.”

Starting in early 2021, the brand will invite local nonprofits to apply for one of 20 $50,000 grants to help fuel and fortify their work. The Missing Ingredients Project will award six grants in 2021 and the remaining 14 grants be awarded in 2022 and 2023.

Changemakers will be asked to submit applications showcasing how they are driving change and improving food access in food deserts across the country – from community fridges with fresh food to hosting pop-up food banks to meet increased demand for healthy, balanced meals. Changemakers will be selected on the strength of their solutions, the impact of their work and their ability and desire to scale their plans to reach even more people.

TRISCUIT is launching a digital and out-of-home campaign featuring arresting visuals in the form of iconic “missing posters” that highlight the reality millions of Americans face: missing the nourishing food they need for balanced eating. Out-of-home media placements can be found in neighborhoods across New York City, including on LinkNYC digital platforms, in close proximity to supermarkets, with the goal of emphasizing one of the factors impacting food access in food deserts: distance to a grocery store. Consumers will be directed to triscuit.com/MissingIngredients to learn more about the issue.

TRISCUIT is also partnering with James Beard award-winning New Orleans chef, Nina Compton, and L.A. based chef, restaurateur, author, and television personality, Ludo Lefebvre, to raise awareness of the issue and help TRISCUIT engage with changemakers.

“Access to fresh and healthy food is something many of us, including myself, take for granted,” said Compton. “In New Orleans, COVID has compounded the problem of missing food and we need brands like TRISCUIT to work toward a solution.”

“The issue of food deserts doesn’t get the attention it deserves,” said Lefebvre. “As a Los Angeles-based chef, I know people in my community—my neighbors, colleagues, friends and my children’s classmates—who do not have access to a very basic need of affordable, healthy food, and I am pleased to partner with brands like TRISCUIT that are helping to improve access.”

For more information on The Missing Ingredients Project and how to apply for a grant or nominate changemakers when the application process opens in early 2021, visit triscuit.com/MissingIngredients

Richard Collier Appointed New Chief Executive Officer at Jack Wolfskin

PR Newswire

IDSTEIN, Germany, Nov. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Richard Collier will be the new Chief Executive Officer of Jack Wolfskin, effective December 1, 2020. In this role, he will be responsible for the successful further development of the strategic brand positioning, and the continued internationalization for Jack Wolfskin.

In June 2020, the Company had already confirmed that their current CEO Melody Harris-Jensbach and Callaway Golf had been amicably preparing a succession arrangement. This arrangement follows the completion of the Jack Wolfskin integration into the Callaway Group, which was acquired in 2019. Harris-Jensbach, who has been CEO of the leading outdoor supplier since 2014, will continue to support the Company in an executive consulting capacity.

“Richard’s broad and impressive experience in a multi-national, multi-brand Company will help drive the further development of Jack Wolfskin,” said Callaway Golf Executive Vice President, Apparel and Soft Goods, Joe Flannery. “In addition to his international business acumen and leadership skills, he has a strong understanding of Jack Wolfskin’s core market. I am convinced that his experience and expertise will help drive continued innovation and success for the business.”

Chip Brewer, CEO of Callaway Golf added, “We would like to thank Melody for her professional and trustful cooperation. She has recently done an excellent job in integrating Jack Wolfskin into the Callaway Group and is responsible for ensuring that the modern outdoor collection and brand positioning increasingly appeal to new and young target groups. These initiatives have enhanced the brand’s desirability in the market.”

Harris-Jensbach said, “I would like to thank Callaway for their trust and professional cooperation. For the integration of Jack Wolfskin into the Callaway Group, we have jointly advanced the most important projects and started to develop the international growth potential that our new shareholder foresees for Jack Wolfskin. I wish Richard Collier all the best in continuing this work.”

Collier is moving to Jack Wolfskin from the Helly Hansen Group, a leading supplier of technical ski, sailing and workwear based in Oslo, Norway. He has worked there for the last 17 years, most recently as Chief Product Officer. During his tenure, Collier contributed significantly to their product, brand, operational and financial performance, and built their social responsibility and sustainability credentials from the ground up.

Prior to joining the Helly Hansen Group, he worked for Tandberg Telecom, Kurt Salmon Associates and Adidas, where he held senior sales and marketing positions. Collier is a British citizen, speaks German, and is married with three children.

“I know Jack Wolfskin and its products well, and I am very excited to join this great brand,” Mr. Collier said. “Having worked in the outdoor industry for many years, I admire how the Company has grown and evolved, while continuing to introduce exceptional, eco-conscious products in the marketplace. I look forward to working with this incredible team to drive even more growth and success.”

Since 2014, Melody Harris-Jensbach has led Jack Wolfskin through several shareholder changes and successfully turned around the business and realigned the collection and brand positioning of the leading outdoor brand. Before joining Jack Wolfskin, Harris-Jensbach held various executive positions including Board Member and Chief Product Officer for Esprit, and Deputy Chairman and Chief Product Officer at Puma. Since the Summer of 2020, she has been a member of the Supervisory Board of Lenzing AG, a manufacturer of innovative and sustainable fiber solutions.

Homesick and Dunkin’ Bring Back Limited-Edition Fan-Favorite Candles for the Holidays

A tantalizing tribute to iconic Dunkin’ menu items, Original Blend and Old Fashioned scents are back by popular demand, with a new candle personalization feature

PR Newswire

NEW YORK and CANTON, Mass., Nov. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — After a successful 2019 launch and an outpouring of requests from fans nationwide, home fragrance and lifestyle brand Homesick announced today it has once again teamed up with Dunkin’, bringing back limited-edition candles inspired by some of the beloved brand’s most popular menu items: Original Blend Coffee and Old Fashioned Donuts.

This year, customers can add a personalized message, like their name, a holiday message, or even a favorite Dunkin’ order to the jar of any candle to make it an extra special gift. The collection, which draws on the power of scent to brew up meaningful memories, brings the Dunkin’ experience and moments of nostalgia into homes of fans nationwide during a time when many catch-ups over coffee and donuts have gone virtual.

Returning Homesick x Dunkin’ Collection candle fragrances include:

  • Original Blend – Dunkin’s signature blend coffee that has been keeping America running for 70 years. The combination of Original Blend Coffee and cream delivers a sweet scent to be enjoyed by all.
  • Old Fashioned – Indulge in the coziness of freshly baked Old Fashioned Donuts with the sweet but subtle scent of traditional warm spices that wrap you in nostalgia.

The returning candle fragrances were lovingly developed by Homesick’s team of researchers, chandlers, and perfume chemists, who worked closely with the Dunkin’ culinary team to ensure each candle captures the essence of the product it represents. Packaged in bold, vibrant prints that reflect Dunkin’s iconic pink and orange colors, the limited-edition collection is available beginning today, November 23, at homesick.com/dunkin for $34 MSRP. For another $15, fans can print a personalized message on the candle’s jar for a custom gift as unique as fans’ go-to Dunkin’ order. Each candle is hand-poured in the U.S. with a soy wax blend and offers a generous burn time of 60 to 80 hours.

“When we first started working with Dunkin’ to create this collection, we immediately bonded over our shared passion for putting a smile on people’s faces. It was all the more fulfilling for us to see such a positive response to the lineup – between Old Fashioned and Original Blend selling out so quickly, and an influx of comments, DMs, and emails from our customers asking us to bring it back,” said Lauren Lamagna, Director of Product Development and Merchandising at Homesick. “Whether our customers are buying for themselves to relive a special Dunkin’ memory, or to give to friends and family customized with their go-to order, we’re excited to team up with Dunkin’ again to offer this meaningful gift for the holiday season.”

“In a year when everyone could use a little more cheer, Dunkin’ coffee and donuts and Homesick candles have both played a role in bringing people moments of comfort and joy. Our fans are as unique as their coffee orders and we wanted to bring back our collaboration with the fun new twist of personalization,” said Justin Unger, Director of Strategic Partnerships at Dunkin’ Brands. “After last year’s response, it was an easy decision to team up with Homesick again to bring back those fan-favorite fragrances and allow people nationwide to experience Dunkin’ at home.”

The collaboration with Homesick is a key part of Dunkin’s plans to help fans give extra cheer all season long. From seasonal sips and holiday cups to custom, limited-edition holiday merch, Dunkin’ has fans’ backs this holiday season, however they’re celebrating.

Goodyear Expands Mobile Tire Installation Service To Make Tire Buying Easier In Chicago Suburbs

This zero-contact service lets drivers have tires installed on their time and their turf

PR Newswire

CHICAGO, Nov. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — With more consumers gravitating toward online shopping and mobile delivery, Goodyear’s Mobile Install service lets drivers get new tires professionally installed without ever leaving home.

Through Goodyear’s new mobile tire installation service, customers in the surrounding Chicago suburbs can shop for tires online and get them professionally installed at home for no extra cost beyond standard installation.* Additionally, Goodyear technicians uphold strict physical distancing measures as part of this zero-contact service.

“With our mobile tire installation option, we aim to accommodate customers who prefer not to leave their homes to get tires installed, as well as those who could simply benefit from the time saved,” said Ryan Hartschuh, mobile planning & development manager at Goodyear. “Our state-of-the-art van delivers the same quality mounting, balancing and installation process that you’d expect, without so much as leaving your home, workplace or even your kid’s soccer practice.”

Mobile Install comes just in time to serve drivers planning to travel for the holidays or using a personal vehicle for transportation. Fittingly, in other markets where Goodyear Mobile Install is available, the service is highly rated by customers and has grown in popularity as COVID-19 has changed in-person shopping habits.

Shopping for tires and booking Mobile Install on Goodyear.com is easy. You choose the right tires for your vehicle, then simply select Mobile Install at checkout. An experienced Goodyear technician will arrive at your selected time and place to install the tires. However, if Mobile Install isn’t your preferred option, tire installation is still available in-store throughout the greater Chicago area.

For more details or to book an appointment, visit www.Goodyear.com/van.

Goodyear Expands Mobile Tire Installation Service To Make Tire Buying Easier In Greater Atlanta Area

This zero-contact service lets drivers have tires installed on their time and their turf

PR Newswire

ATLANTA, Nov. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — With more consumers gravitating toward online shopping and mobile delivery, Goodyear’s Mobile Install service lets drivers get new tires professionally installed without ever leaving home.

Through Goodyear’s new mobile tire installation service, customers in the greater Atlanta area can shop for tires online and get them professionally installed at home for no extra cost beyond standard installation.* Additionally, Goodyear technicians uphold strict physical distancing measures as part of this zero-contact service.

“With our mobile tire installation option, we aim to accommodate customers who prefer not to leave their homes to get tires installed, as well as those who could simply benefit from the time saved,” said Ryan Hartschuh, mobile planning & development manager at Goodyear. “Our state-of-the-art van delivers the same quality mounting, balancing and installation process that you’d expect, without so much as leaving your home, workplace or even your kid’s soccer practice.”

Mobile Install comes just in time to serve drivers planning to travel for the holidays or using a personal vehicle for transportation. Fittingly, in other markets where Goodyear Mobile Install is available, the service is highly rated by customers and has grown in popularity as COVID-19 has changed in-person shopping habits.

Shopping for tires and booking Mobile Install on Goodyear.com is easy. You choose the right tires for your vehicle, then simply select Mobile Install at checkout. An experienced Goodyear technician will arrive at your selected time and place to install the tires. However, if Mobile Install isn’t your preferred option, tire installation is still available in-store throughout the greater Atlanta area.
