Active nutrition and beverage company Nutrabolt has appointed Andrew Archambault as president and chief operating officer, effective immediately, as the company looks to strengthen its position across the energy drinks and wellness categories.


Archambault will oversee Nutrabolt’s commercial and operational functions, including sales, supply chain and international operations, supporting the company’s continued expansion in energy beverages and active nutrition.


He joins the business with more than 30 years of consumer packaged goods experience, having previously held senior leadership roles at The Hershey Company and Keurig Dr Pepper, where he served as president of the US beverage unit. During his career, he has managed multi-billion-dollar profit and loss portfolios and led large-scale commercial and marketing operations.


Doss Cunningham, chairman and chief executive officer of Nutrabolt, described Archambault as a “transformational leader” with significant experience driving growth within large consumer businesses.

“His track record leading complex commercial organisations across some of the most respected companies in the industry, combined with his ability to translate strategy into execution, makes him uniquely suited to help us accelerate our next phase of growth,” Cunningham said.


Archambault joins Nutrabolt as the company continues to expand its presence in the performance energy segment, increase share across energy drinks and modern soda, and invest in emerging active nutrition brands.


Commenting on his appointment, Archambault said he was “thrilled” to join the company and support its next stage of development.


“The company has built an exceptional portfolio and strong team, and I look forward to scaling its impact, strengthening performance, and helping drive its next chapter of growth,” he said.


Founded in 2002, Nutrabolt is best known for brands including C4 Energy, Bloom, Cellucor and Xtend.

Mars Wrigley expands Twix portfolio with new hazelnut variant

Global confectionery giant Mars Wrigley has expanded its Twix range with the launch of Twix Hazelnut.


The new product is rolling out across UK grocery, convenience and wholesale channels, building on the brand's established combination of chocolate, biscuit and caramel with the addition of a hazelnut-flavoured caramel layer.


Twix remains one of the UK's top performing chocolate bar brands, with the company highlighting continued growth momentum. According to the company, previous Twix flavour extensions have already delivered significant incremental shopper recruitment.


Hazelnut continues to perform strongly within confectionery innovation, with flavour-led new products increasingly playing a central role in driving trial, premiumisation and repeat purchases across the category.


Laura O’Neill, senior brand manager for Twix at Mars Wrigley, said: "Recruiting the next generation of shoppers while keeping our existing fans engaged is our number one priority, and our track record proves flavour innovation is one of the most powerful levers we have to unlock incremental growth."


Twix Hazelnut will be available in single, Xtra and multipack formats.
