Leading Algae Supplements Company Adds Seasoned Industry Executive
Qualitas Health, LLC (dba iwi life) announced the appointment of Thomas Dimke as CEO. Dimke joins iwi life from SFI Health, a global premium natural healthcare products company where he served as General Manager for the Americas.

Dimke shared, “iwi life is a high growth brand with so much to offer consumers and health care professionals from both a clinical and sustainability perspective. You don’t see brands like this with such a depth of internal scientific expertise producing their core ingredient. The opportunity to join a company focused on the health and well-being of customers and the planet is tremendously worthwhile. I cannot wait to spend time at our farm.”
Before Dimke’s position at SFI Health, he held roles as President of Union Springs Healthcare, Corporate Vice President at Omnicare, Senior Vice President of Global Commercial Services at inVentiv Health, and senior positions at Cardinal Health, Kenexa, Innovex, and Ciba-Geigy Pharmaceuticals.
