Mark Vadon, CEO and founder of online jeweler Blue Nile Inc., has joined the board of directors of Wine.com.
"Mark has done an extraordinary job building Blue Nile into a major, publicly traded e-commerce leader," says Rich Bergsund, CEO of Wine.com. "There is no one better qualified to help Wine.com grow profitably in the months and years ahead." Wine.com is No. 199 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide.
"I've been a Wine.com customer for some time, and I've found their combination of information and online tools to be compelling," Vadon says. "I'm excited to help Rich transform Wine.com into a leading online retailer."
Vadon co-founded Blue Nile, No. 49 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide, in 1999 and led the company through an initial public offering in May 2004. Before Blue Nile, he was a consultant with Bain & Co.
