In February, Maureen and Geoff Needham, founders of PlantHaven, named Robert Bett the company CEO.
Almost five years ago, the Needhams hired Robert and Jeanette Bett to join the company.
"PlantHaven is a real team effort with everyone pitching in to make our projects as successful and profitable as possible," Geoff says. "When Robert and Jeanette joined PlantHaven we all knew that we were embarking on a new chapter together. We have seen tremendous changes in the industry in these recent years but we feel very well equipped to carry out our responsibilities and continue to grow the business."
In February, the Needhams asked Robert if he would agree to serve as PlantHaven's CEO.
"We are delighted that Robert has accepted. It feels absolutely right because it is right, as we are sure many of you will readily agree."
