Jodi Kahn Named Chief
Consumer Officer at FreshDirect
FreshDirect, a leading online fresh food grocer, re-
cently announced that it has named Jodi Kahn
Chief
Consumer Officer. In this role, Kahn will be
charged with transforming all consumer-facing
marketing, including shopping experience and dig-
ital/mobile development, driving new marketing
platforms and enhancing the company's insights
and database platforms.
Kahn recently served as President of iVillage, the
largest online content community for women,
where she reengineered the business, introduced
new revenue/licensing models and transformed the
organization's DNA. Her team developed a powerful
insight tool that allowed iVillage to tap into the pas-
sions
and challenges of everyday women and ig-
nited the popular "Community Challenges"
program to galvanize women around health, edu-
cation and finance issues. These initiatives cap-
tured national recognition including a deep
partnership with the First Lady and the White
House. Under Kahn's leadership, iVillage became a
stage for influencers and brands to engage with
women around important life issues.
Previously, Kahn served as President of Global
Digital Media for Readers Digest Association,
where she oversaw allrecipes.com, executed a
strategy for digital expansion, and developed a
global licensing business. Prior to that, Kahn spent
16 years at Time Inc., where she held a number of
senior level positions in consumer marketing and
business management.
"Jodi has an extensive background of not only
building brands, but reinvigorating and defining
them with powerful insights-based marketing and
consumer-focused initiatives," said Jason Acker-
man, CEO and Co-founder of FreshDirect.
