As Co-Founder and CEO of Expion360 and its largest shareholder, I have helped guide these management transitions which I believe will allow me to do what I do best and love to do the most. That is, being fully focused on building customer and partner relationships and selling the absolute best lithium-ion batteries on the market today. I believe this will deliver the greatest benefit to our shareholders and customers as we pursue new growth opportunities in the new year.”

We look forward to his continued leadership in his new role focused on business development, which we anticipate bearing great fruit in the near term.”

Schaffner continued: “I have worked with Greg in multiple capacities and have complete trust in his abilities to guide the finances of Expion360 as the Chief Financial Officer.
