NEXE Innovations Announces Appointment of Strategic Advisor - Tom Hoyne, a Seasoned Coffee and Food Manufacturing Executive

WINDSOR, ON, Nov. 19, 2024 /CNW/ - NEXE Innovations Inc. ("NEXE", the "Company", "we", "us" or "our") (TSXV: NEXE) (Frankfurt: NX5) (OTC: NEXNF), a compostable and innovative materials company, is pleased to announce the appointment of Tom Hoyne as a Strategic Advisor to the Company.

Mr. Hoyne has over 35 years of food operations and manufacturing experience. Most recently, he served as the Vice President of Coffee and Quality at Kicking Horse Coffee, where he dedicated 20 years to managing quality and food safety systems, sourcing green coffee, overseeing roasting operations, and refining coffee processing. He continued in this role after Lavazza acquired 80% of Kicking Horse Coffee for approximately $215 million. We believe Mr. Hoyne will provide invaluable advice and expertise to NEXE Innovations as it scales its operations for the coffee segment. Mr. Hoyne's experience in the coffee space and his experience as an entrepreneur in the manufacturing industry will be a significant value add to the existing NEXE team.

"I have known NEXE since its inception and genuinely believe in their product. They have developed a competitive product that targets the single-serve plastic pod sustainability concerns," stated Tom Hoyne, "This is a much-needed solution for a growing part of the coffee market. I look forward to working with the NEXE team".

"Tom Hoyne will provide strategic guidance across multiple facets of our operations. His expertise in the coffee industry and managing food operations will be a tremendous asset as we hit production milestones and expand our operations to serve larger customers," stated Ash Guglani.
