Curaleaf named Matt Darin as president, effective immediately.
Darin joins Curaleaf with a wealth of industry knowledge and leadership experience, according to a company release. He previously served as co-founder and COO of Grassroots Cannabis, which Curaleaf acquired in July 2020.
Darin will report to Curaleaf CEO Joe Bayern.
“I’m incredibly excited to appoint Matt as our new president under this new structure, which will help us execute with greater fluidity and will allow me to focus on strategic growth initiatives for the company,” Bayern said. “Matt has the operational excellence, leadership skills and discipline to drive our continued vision as we begin our twelfth year in business and solidify our position as the global leader in this exciting industry.”
Additionally, Curaleaf COO Neil Davidson is retiring, effective Jan. 3, but will stay on for a transition period through March 31.
“The Board and I are all incredibly grateful to Neil for his dedication, passion and his many contributions to the company,” said Boris Jordan, executive chairman at Curaleaf. “While we will miss his talent, drive and relentless pursuit of perfection, we wish him all the best in his future endeavors."]]>
