"Over the past 19 years, Tastefully Simple has become a household name due to our amazing, dedicated team," said Tastefully Simple Founder and CEO, Jill Blashack Strahan. "They are like family to us, which makes this very difficult.
"We also know this step is absolutely necessary to help us achieve our growth goals in an increasingly challenging marketplace," Strahan added. "I'm very confident in our ability to grow our business by investing in targeted strategies. We are extremely committed to being a strong, thriving company for our team, our thousands of consultants, our community and the millions of clients that enjoy our products."
