🏈 ⚡️ Douglas Lamont, CEO, Tony’s Chocoloney
Douglas Lamont may have only joined Tony’s Chocolonely as CEO in 2022, but he’s got the bran-d on a sugar high. Not only has Lamont helped the confection brand develop new partnerships with big name brands like Ben & Jerry’s, but he’s also played a core role in setting up the company’s new mission-driven governance structure designed to protect the goals of its b2b ethical bean trading company – while also raising more than $21 million. As its profile continues to rise, expect more candy brands to follow the example of the Chocolonely exec and find new ways of futureproofing their missions — possibly by partnering with Tony’s own ingredient partners.
