1933 Industries (CSE: TGIF) announces appointments

1933 Industries Inc. (CSE: TGIF) (OTCQX: TGIFF) announces the appointments of Ms. Ester Vigil as President and Mr. Caleb Zobrist as Executive Vice President, effective immediately.

Ms. Vigil will have oversight of sales and marketing, with the aim of establishing 1933’s wellness products as the premier cannabis and CBD brands in the marketplace. Ms. Vigil is a skilled marketer and brings more than 17 years’ experience in the cosmetics industry, having worked for companies such as Peter Thomas Roth and Sephora. During her tenure as Vice President with 1933 Industries, she was responsible for all sales initiatives, client management, education, and marketing across all sales channels for the Company’s Alternative Medicine Association (“AMA”) and Infused MFG. (“Infused”) cannabis and CBD lines. A native of Iceland, Ms. Vigil immigrated to the United States in 2001 and received her citizenship in 2010.

Mr. Chris Rebentisch, CEO said, “Ester joined Infused in 2017 and quickly established herself as a leader in the Company and industry. She has been the driving force behind the impressive growth of the Canna Hemp™ line of wellness products to over 700 retail outlets across 46 US states. Ester’s vision and leadership, coupled with her solid background and experience will help us bring our hemp and CBD products to the mainstream marketplace.”

Ms. Vigil said, “Understanding our customers has been the key to our success. My primary goal will be to build a brand that people can trust. We aim to offer best of breed, all natural products that have wide market acceptance, have a positive effective on our lives and meet the needs of all consumers, young and old.”

As Executive Vice President, Mr. Zobrist will oversee the implementation of the strategic plans to establish TGIF as a reliable innovator in the cannabis space. As a proven leader, Mr. Zobrist will be charged to direct all mid-level leadership to ensure stability and consistency throughout the organization, which will be crucial during the Company’s current rapid growth. Mr. Zobrist has been a licensed attorney in Nevada since 2009, working on numerous mergers and acquisitions for private and public companies. He has represented cannabis companies in Nevada since the state's launch of its legal medical marijuana program in 2014 and joined the Company in 2018 as Vice President and General Counsel.

TGIF continues to build and consolidate the management team in Nevada affirming its position as a U.S. based and operating cannabis company. I think there is significant potential for investors in TGIF as the shares seem undervalued relative to the sales and profitability potential in 2019 and 2020. As mentioned above, I recently visited the expanded operations of 1933 in Las Vegas and progress is very much in line with general investor expectation guidance.
