Cyanotech Corporation (Nasdaq Capital Market: CYAN), the world
innovation leader in the cultivation and manufacture of microalgae
for health and nutrition, including BioAstin® Hawaiian Astaxanthin
and Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica®, today announces the appointment
of Collette Kakuk as Chief Strategic and Commercial Officer. Ms.
Kakuk brings an impressive background in business development,
strategy, and marketing to add significant value to Cyanotech’s
growing stable of products. Her industry experience, combined with
a passionate drive for sustainable and authentic product sourcing,
makes her an ideal addition to Cyanotech’s executive team.
Recognizing growing global interest in microalgae and its health

consumers are not only looking for more natural, healthy products –
they also want them responsibly produced. I am deeply impressed by
Cyanotech’s longstanding commitment to natural, sustainable
production,” said Kakuk. “Growing microalgae in open ponds, under
natural sunlight, with fresh lava filtered water is as old as time
– offering the world of health and wellness access to the abundant
benefits of this geologically unique location. I aim to tell the
story of Hawaiian quality and authenticity, while defining and
upholding industry standards to ensure public confidence in our
category of wellness.”
Cyanotech’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Matthew K.
Custer, affirms that Ms. Kakuk’s appointment to the senior
leadership team marks a moment of opportunity for the company.
“Collette brings a dual perspective,” Custer said. “She is both an
accomplished, creative, and inspired business leader - but also
remains deeply connected to the mindset of a discriminating
consumer, who researches and curates only the best healthy products
for her family. She readily understands the distinguishing features
of our products on a profound level.”
“Being a vertically integrated, health and wellness ingredient
and finished goods company located in Hawaii, there is no corporate
calling more authentic, nor compelling, than our unwavering
commitment to care for people and the environment,” said Kakuk. “As
a company, this is not an add on or fleeting trend for us. It’s the
essence of who Cyanotech is, and has been, since day one.”
