Chase was previously with Institute Rosell (formerly Lallemand Bio-Ingredients, headquartered in Montreal, Canada), where he was the North American Sales Director. Prior to this, he owned and operated Botanica Trading, Inc. Chase will be based at the Petaluma, CA headquarters, and will be managing sales and marketing for Spectrum's nutraceutical ingredients.
"I'm looking forward to driving Spectrum's sales and marketing efforts to new heights in the nutraceutical supplement business," said Chase. "I believe their products and the technologies they have developed for the extraction of nutritional oils and oil bearing nutraceuticals are a huge untapped resource."
Hill comes to Spectrum from California Redi-Date, where, as Marketing Director, he assisted in merging the business with the newly acquired Dole date processing facility. Hill will be based in Aptos, CA and will be managing sales and marketing for Spectrum's Organic Ingredients Division.
