Dr. Muhammed Majeed, founder of Sabinsa, is pleased to announce that he has promoted Ms. Asha Ramesh to the position of CEO for Sabinsa USA. She will also join the company’s Board of Directors.

“Asha is well suited to oversee Sabinsa’s US division, given her many years of experience with several aspects of the company.
