Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, the Waterbury, Vt., coffee business that ran afoul of a Securities and Exchange Commission probe into its revenue recognition practices in 2010, has named a new chief accounting officer.
The company has tapped Stephen Gibbs as vice president and chief accounting officer, effective immediately. The position is a newly created role; Green Mountain says Gibbs will lead the accounting operations including financial reporting, accounting, tax, financial systems, policies and controls, and will report to CFO Frances Rathke.
