Following a Tuesday press release, it's clear that Mims will be no stranger to the boardroom, taking on the role of CEO, and bagging a spot on the company's board of directors. She's replacing Seth Goldman, who had filled the CEO position back in 2018, after serving as COO.
With an impressive career spanning across four continents, Mims brings executive-level experience from companies like Cemex and Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide to the table. The Cuban-born Mollinedo Mims is expected to strengthen UrbanStems' relationships with their Latin American suppliers, known as a "global hub for flower cultivation."

As visionaries do, she's keen to collaborate with the company's talented team and partners to keep innovating and cement UrbanStems' position as the go-to brand in the floral gifting space.
Progress and Milestones: The Path To Success
Joining the company over two years after UrbanStems raised a whopping $20 million in a Series C funding round, Mims has some impressive milestones to build upon. The funding round, led by SWaN & Legend Venture Partners and DFE Capital Management, was aimed at fueling UrbanStems' growth and expansion plans – elements where Mims' leadership could prove crucial.
According to David Strasser, partner at SWaN & Legend, it's time to say farewell to Goldman with heartfelt gratitude for his exceptional leadership over the past five years. Strasser believes Mims' extensive experience in igniting growth and transforming brands is a perfect fit for UrbanStems' ambitious goals.
