BMX racing legend Toby Henderson is leaving VSI Products, Inc. to pursue "something big and relevant" within the bicycle industry. Whatever it turns out to be, his countless fans and friends can be sure it will indeed be big and relevant. Toby has been the chief operating officer (COO) and a shareholder in VSI since 2004 and he is largely responsible for making VSI what it is today. He is a visionary who conceived and implemented many ideas, developed countless innovative products, created brands and built an organization that supported his vision. His shares will be sold back to VSI for an undisclosed amount.
Toby left the racing circuit at the peak of his success and is now making a second big transition in the same spirit-in each case, with a great track record of achievement.
Having met his goal of establishing VSI as the leader in the
BMX racing segment, he has decided the time is right to move into the next phase of his career. The staff at VSI wishes Toby success in his new endeavor and has been working on a transition plan to ensure smooth and uninterrupted operations. Business will continue as usual.
Sales Director Gregorio de Haro (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) is the new COO, and the rest of staff will continue in the same roles. Above all, Toby's spirit of innovation remains built into the company's DNA, and looking beyond the company's transition plan, VSI is well poised for further growth in the years to come.
