Keune Appoints New COO


Andrew Biazis has been appointed chief operating officer at Keune Haircosmetics USA, Inc.

Biazis will tap into his 25-plus years of experience in beauty leadership roles to transform the North American organization of this global Dutch manufacturer of professional hair care products into a key player in the marketplace.

"Currently sold in almost 70 countries, Keune Haircosmetics, has been a global leader in the business for more than 90 years. That gives the company great credibility with hairdressers, but in the United States, it's one of the best-kept secrets," explains Biazis. "What I admire about the company is that its reason for existence and motivation is to serve the salon and solely support hairdressers, fulfilling Keune's long-standing vision of providing hairdressers with the tools for creating 'The Art of Hair Design.'

Biazis continues, "As the market learns more about the company's high performance hair color, care and styling products, Keune will attain a leadership role in the U.S. and Canadian beauty marketplaces. We already provide salons with a professional-only partner that has vast global resources offering the highest quality products and education. Going forward, we will build upon the dedication and achievements by the Keune family exhibited over three generations." A high-energy and results oriented executive, Biazis has transformed both Fortune 10 and family-owned entrepreneurial organizations into dynamic, fast growing companies.
