Knauss， who started his career at Coca-Cola in 1994， has also served as president for Coke in Southern Africa and has held executive posts in its Minute Maid unit.
家庭用品生产商高乐氏公司周三任命可口可乐公司北美业务总裁唐纳德·克诺斯出任该公司董事长兼首席执行官，任命将在10月份生效。
可口可乐公司周三早些时候宣布，北美区总裁唐纳德·克诺斯将辞去职务，他的职位将由可口可乐公司原来的首席客户官亚历山大·道格拉斯接任。
现年55岁的克诺斯是取代罗伯特·马特切特成为高乐氏公司董事长兼首席执行官的。由于高乐氏公司原董事长兼首席执行官杰拉德·约翰斯顿心脏病发，罗伯特·马特切特在今年3月开始担任该公司的临时董事长兼首席执行官。高乐氏公司表示，罗伯特·马特切特今后将仍任职于董事会。
克诺斯于1994年进入可口可乐公司，曾担任过可口可乐南非公司的总裁和美汁源部门主管。 董 莉
