This overwhelming consumer response has given way to the rapid growth and expansion we've experienced in a short period of time and we believe this is just the beginning."

Plum Organics has also announced the addition of former U.S. Senator Bill Bradley as a member on the company's Board of Directors as the company remains dedicated to appointing leaders that align with their core values and social mission. Mr. Bradley, former senator, Olympian, NBA star and author, brings over 18 years of experience in public service with a passion for issues that impact the advancement of our nation's children. He will lend his voice and expertise to Plum as they further their mission of providing greater access to organic nutrition for babies and children in need in the U.S.

"We are a passionate bunch at Plum, and seek the best talent to expand our team," said Grimmer. "We are thrilled to welcome Bill Bradley to our Board of Directors, as his expertise and dedication to public service will certainly be an asset to our organization's enduring mission.
