Scoop Elects New Board in Bid to End Troubles

Scoop Inc., recently sold to 24Store.com Ltd. in England, said Thursday that a new board of directors has been elected as part of its bankruptcy reorganization plan.

The Santa Ana media reprint designer said in a press release that its new chairman is Larsake Sandin, a founder of InfiniCom AB in Sweden, which owns a majority interest in 24Store.com. He replaces Rand Bleimeister, formally the sole director and chief executive who resigned in January.

Other directors are Swedish businessmen Lennart Orkan and Akbar Seddigh.

Scoop operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of 24Store.com, one of Europe’s earliest established dot-coms.
