The Honest Company, the baby and beauty products brand founded by actress Jessica Alba and backed by L Catterton, announced on Friday an updated board of directors, effective upon it becoming a public company.
James White, former chairman, president and CEO of Jamba, Inc., will join The Honest Company’s board with nearly 30 years of professional experience in the CPG and retail industries. He is also a current board member of Affirm Holdings Inc., Medallia, Inc., The Simply Good Foods Company and Adtalem Global Education Inc. When he officially joins The Honest Company’s board of directors, White will equally become its new chair of the board.
