NEW YORK — Kind Snacks, a Mars, Inc. brand, has named Beth Jarocki chief customer officer of its North American division. In her new role, Jarocki will lead the company’s sales organization and oversee strategic planning and growth opportunities across all sales channels “to bring Kind into even more households,” Kind said. She will report to Russell Stokes, chief executive officer.
