"The board of directors and the entire Freshii team join me in thanking for his contributions, commitment and leadership," said CEO Matthew Corrin in a statement. De Pratto will stay in his role until May 10 and the company will start a formal search for a new CFO.The company, which opened its first store in 2005 and has since grown to nearly 440 locations in 16 countries, has faced repeated challenges in several areas over the past couple years.
It announced ambitious expansion goals, hoping to number more than 800 stores by the end of its 2019 financial year and then scaled that figure back to more than 700 before scrapping the long-term outlook. In its most recent quarterly earnings report, Freshii reported same-store sales dropped 6.1 per cent and Corrin committed to doing fewer things, but better.When Freshii shares first went public in January 2017, they traded at roughly $12.
