Amazon Aggregator Thrasio CEO Steps Down

According to an internal memo seen by CNBC, Greg Greeley, the CEO of Thrasio, announced his resignation to staff on Tuesday. Alongside Greeley, the company's finance chief Josh Burke and several other key executives are also leaving their positions.

In the wake of these departures, Stephanie Fox, currently Thrasio's chief operating officer, is set to take over as CEO. The departing executives will remain onboard temporarily to ensure a smooth transition during the company's emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the coming weeks.

Thrasio gained prominence for acquiring successful Amazon brands and consolidating them under its umbrella, using its data and operational expertise to drive sales growth. Thrasio recently faced financial challenges despite its previous success, leading to a bankruptcy filing.
