Over the last three years, we’ve been on a huge transformation journey – and have seen incredible results. The announcement of our upcoming sale to Yellow Wood Partners is a collective achievement for us all and shows how we’ve come together as a team to deliver impressive positive momentum for all our brands, creating new routes to market and building a strong company with the capabilities and people we need to go even further. Today, we’re announcing that our CEO Jean-Laurent Ingles will step down upon completion of the sale of Elida Beauty to Yellow Wood Partners, anticipated to be in early June. He will take up the role of non-executive director for Elida Beauty in the newly formed board of directors together with Yellow Wood members. Jean-Laurent has led Elida Beauty since we were founded in 2021, having previously spent over 30 years with Unilever. We’d like to thank Jean-Laurent for his vision and passion for beauty, bringing together brands and teams around the world ready to act as #Refounders to drive growth and excite new consumers. Under his dynamic leadership, we’ve built a strong global team, delivered positive turnaround in our brands – and most importantly, have had lots of fun! Thank you for everything Jean-Laurent. Bring on the next step in the Elida Beauty journey!
Thank you, JL! All the best!
Congratulations to Elida Beauty at Unilever and the @yellowwoodpartners a great pairing!
All the very best to you and the new journey Jean-Laurent Ingles!
