STRATHAM, N.H.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bedroom Kandi is pleased to celebrate the one-year anniversary of Nadine Thompson as president of Bedroom Kandi Boutique Parties (BKBP). Thompson came to Bedroom Kandi in 2015 with more than 16 years of leadership experience in direct sales for wellness and beauty products. She uses her expertise to oversee the day-to-day operations of the award-winning collaboration between Kandi Burruss—GRAMMY award-winning artist and star of Bravo’s Real Housewives of Atlanta—and OhMiBod, an industry-leading, female-owned and operated pleasure products manufacturer.
"One of Bedroom Kandi’s chief goals is empowering women, driven by its home party network, to take charge of their lives and become leaders in their communities through entrepreneurship," said Burruss. "Nadine has embodied that spirit, while strengthening our team and expanding the product line to include bath and beauty products.”
During the last year, the BKBP catalog has grown to include a diverse collection of quality products for women and men. They include fragrances, massage oils, soaps, and moisturizers.
“Nadine has worked to ensure that there’s truly something for everyone at a Bedroom Kandi Party,” added Burruss.
Thompson got her start as the co-founder and CEO of Warm Spirit, which boasted a network of more than 30,000 consultants nationwide and the distinction of being one of the first direct selling companies designed for women of color. In 2008, she worked to redefine the meaning of beauty for women of all backgrounds with Soul Purpose Lifestyle Company.
"Nadine has devoted her career to helping women understand the importance of health and wellness, but this isn’t the only way she’s enriching lives,” added OhMiBod co-founder Suki Dunham. "Her background as a business woman and community leader has made her an ideal role model for the growing field of Bedroom Kandi Boutique Consultants across the country. As President, she’s made an incredible impact in a short period of time and we’re excited for the future."
Thompson has been a featured speaker at events such as ESSENCE magazine’s Women Who Are Shaping the World Leadership Summit and the National Organization for Women. She has also received many awards for business leadership, including the Onyx Woman Economic Empowerment Award, the Global Diversity Network Trailblazer Award, and The Los Angeles Black Expo Madam CJ Walker Award for Leadership and Entrepreneurship.
Thompson resides in Exeter, New Hampshire with her husband and their two children.
