"What I see is that the business of helping Black and Brown people feel and manifest their beauty is a better business today than it was yesterday, and it will be an even better business tomorrow."

Bronner Bros. is pleased to announce the appointment of David Johnson to the role of Interim Chief Executive Officer.

Founded in 1947, the company is a 100% family and African American owned consumer products and exhibition company serving the multi-cultural beauty market. Bronner Bros. has deep roots in the industry, producing the International Beauty Show as well as a line of industry leading haircare products.

David was appointed to the role of Interim Chief Executive Officer effective January 1, 2023, with a mandate to drive a business transformation and prepare the way for the 3rd generation of family leadership to take the reins at the company.

Nathaniel Bronner Jr. (67), a Board Member and Shareholder, had this to say:

“We knew David by reputation, but meeting him added another level to our understanding of what he brings to the table. David possesses a deep level of expertise in driving transformational change, and he is also a leader who is capable of fostering change while preserving the original vision and moral core of the company.”

David Johnson, who joins the company as an accomplished change agent across industries, said the following:

"This is an exciting time for Bronner Bros. Family businesses are special, and multi-generation, black-owned family businesses even more so. Today, the company is facing a market in flux, with the category leaders solidifying their positions while the rest of the market looks on. What I see is that the business of helping Black and Brown people feel and manifest their beauty is a better business today than it was yesterday, and it will be an even better business tomorrow. It is my job to drive the change necessary to meet our awesome market opportunity, and I am energized and humbled by that task."
