One World Products appoints Ambassador Ertharin Cousin to its board alongside Minyon Moore, bringing together two Forbes 100 Most Powerful Women to guide the company's expansion into automotive and food packaging with a focus on sustainability and inclusive growth.

One World Products, Inc., soon to be renamed Isiah Enterprises, announced the appointment of Ambassador Ertharin Cousin to its Board of Directors, joining Minyon Moore in what represents a significant alignment of leadership and global influence at the intersection of sustainability, innovation, and inclusive growth. Isiah Thomas, Chairman and CEO of One World Products, stated that these appointments underscore the company's commitment to integrity, innovation, and impact as it builds Isiah Enterprises for long-term value. The company is currently executing in automotive packaging and expanding into food packaging, sectors where its capabilities and partnerships can scale responsibly.
Ambassador Cousin brings more than four decades of global leadership across public, private, and social sectors, having served as Executive Director of the United Nations World Food Programme from 2012 to 2017 and as U.S. Ambassador to the UN Agencies for Food and Agriculture from 2009 to 2012. She previously served as Chief Operating Officer of Feeding America and later founded Food Systems for the Future to accelerate sustainable innovation in food equity. Ambassador Cousin emphasized that the company reflects what the future of business should be, where sustainability, equity, and economic empowerment are not competing goals.
Minyon Moore, who leads Dewey Square Group's State and Local Affairs and Multicultural Strategies practices, noted that having two leaders named to Forbes' 100 Most Powerful Women on the same board is about substance rather than symbolism. Moore's career includes service as Assistant to the President and Director of White House Political Affairs under President Bill Clinton, senior advisory roles in the Biden Harris Administration, and prior service as CEO of the Democratic National Committee. Both leaders share a belief in leadership that listens, collaborates, and acts with courage.
The addition of Ambassador Cousin alongside Minyon Moore marks a defining step in One World Products' transition to Isiah Enterprises as the company broadens its focus to automotive sustainability, renewable materials, and circular economy manufacturing. The company serves automotive packaging markets and is building a presence in food packaging, aligning its materials strategy with current partners and prospective customers across both sectors. Recent operational milestones include the successful launch and scaling of a rubber compounds product line using existing equipment, with more than 100,000 pounds shipped to date.
By leveraging its prime location within the nation's manufacturing corridor and deepening partnerships across automotive, packaging, and industrial markets, the company is advancing a growth model built on innovation, jobs, and measurable environmental impact.
