Arcadia Biosciences, Inc. has appointed veteran consumer goods leader Stan Jacot as chief executive officer, effective February 2, 2022. Jacot holds an impressive track record of implementing transformational business strategies and profitably driving growth, most recently at Jane's Dough Foods where he achieved a double-digit compound annual growth rate during his six-year tenure. Jacot was selected as CEO by Arcadia's board of directors after a nationwide search.

The role was previously held by Matt Plavan from 2019 until his departure this past December, at which time Chairman of the Board, Kevin Comcowich, was appointed to the position on an interim basis.
