As an accepted member of the Council, Cheikh will serve as a point of reference for other business leaders in America, giving feedback on the current economic trends and advice on how to tackle micro and macro-economic challenges.

He will connect and collaborate with other respected local leaders in a private forum and at members-only events. Cheikh will also be invited to work with a professional editorial team to share his expert insights in original business articles on Forbes.com, and to contribute to published Q&A panels alongside other experts.

“I’m honored to have been selected to be a part of the Forbes Business Council,” said Cheikh Mboup, President of Edible® Brands. “I look forward to working alongside this remarkable community of industry leaders, sharing best practices and developing the next generation of business leaders.”
