American Marconi Wireless News - MainStreetChamber Holdings Appoints kathy ireland Worldwide Top Executive, Thomas Meharey, as President

Meharey will oversee the company's strategic initiatives, with a focus on empowering the company's clients with the tools and opportunities they need to thrive in the marketplace.

Meharey brings to the company more than 20 years of executive and entrepreneurial experience. He previously served more than 10 years as vice president of kathy ireland® Worldwide (kiWW®), which ranks as the world's top woman's global brand licensor and 16th overall, and represented $3.4 billion in annual retail sales last year, according to License Global magazine.

At kiWW, Meharey launched the MIVI Millennial consumer products brand in collaboration with "Super Model turned Super Mogul" and global lifestyle designer, Kathy Ireland. He earlier served as director of kathy ireland® Weddings and Resorts, managing a $40 million property portfolio.

He began his career serving in the U.S. military and is a decorated Marine veteran. He continues to serve on the boards of kiWW and Nasdaq-traded Safe & Green Holdings Corp., as well as other privately held companies.

"Tommy exemplifies the values of discipline, service, and innovation, and brings to us a wealth of executive experience, knowledge and skills," stated Kozin. "His extraordinary career, and particularly his accomplishments at kiWW and directorship at a Nasdaq-traded company, makes him ideally suited for leading MainStreetChamber through its next stage of growth and market expansion. We believe he will inspire the entrepreneurial spirit in the businesses we serve across the nation and deliver tremendous value to our shareholders."

"I'm excited to join MainStreetChamber at this pivotal stage in its growth and development, especially following the addition of several top kathy ireland® brands to its client portfolio which has been driving significant revenue growth," commented Meharey.

"A long time ago as a Marine, I learned the importance of strong leadership, resilience, and teamwork-qualities that have driven the success of kiWW and which I will now bring to MainStreet every day," continued Meharey. "I'm deeply committed to supporting our growing client base of small businesses and entrepreneurs. Together with our talented MainStreet team, I will focus on driving meaningful results and expanding the opportunities for growth across the communities we serve."
