BevMo! has promoted SVP of Merchandising Josiah Knutsen to the role of President and CEO. He succeeds Dmitri Haloulos, who is leaving the position after four years. The retailer also named Chief Accounting Officer and Acting CFO Denise Rowan as permanent CFO.

“Josiah is an innovative, results-driven leader with a relentless focus on understanding and fulfilling customer expectations,” said Cathy Stauffer, chairman of the BevMo!
