Pierre Montaubin – a Counselor Power 50 member who was promoted to CEO in 2023 – ascribes Koozie Group’s flat sales to a “return to basics” after several years of revenue being juiced by remote workplace gifting. Last year, he adds, “more traditional products such as pens, calendars and notepads took centerstage.” The supplier has continued its focus on sustainability, achieving CarbonNeutral certification. Another milestone: full integration of IMAGEN Brands. This spring also brought an unexpected windfall, with one of its gel pens going viral on TikTok. At the end of May, Power 50 member and Chief Revenue Officer Melissa Ralston departed the company; a replacement wasn’t named, but longtime employee Trish Daly was promoted to vice president of sales.
