On Monday, Bob Moreno’s tenure as La Palina’s vp of sales came to an end.

The change comes nearly one year since Moreno was announced for the position following tenures at E.P. Carrillo and XIKAR.

An email sent to La Palina’s owner Bill Paley was not returned. Moreno didn’t respond to a message sent to him via a social networking site, but he did send an email to retailers earlier this morning confirming his departure.

In the email, he said he looked forward to finding a new position in the industry.
