EMERYVILLE, Calif., Oct. 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Amyris, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMRS), a leading synthetic biotechnology company accelerating the world's transition to sustainable consumption through its Lab-to-Market™ technology platform and clean beauty consumer brands, today announced that three of its consumer brands will be included in Sephora's launch in the United Kingdom (UK).

Today, consumers in the UK already enjoy access to Amyris consumer brands sold in SpaceNK, Selfridges, Harrods, Cult Beauty, and will also be able to access Amyris' brands via their direct-to-consumer brand websites in the coming months. Amyris plans to expand its offering in the UK and Europe with additional brands and retail store presence during 2023.

"Amyris consumer brands are delivering some of the best performance in health and beauty and are accelerating on the back of significant consumer demand across the critical global markets for clean, sustainable health and beauty products at an accessible price," said John Melo, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are executing very well, and our revenue has continued to grow sequentially. Consumers are doubling down on clean beauty. Along with some of the strongest growth across the beauty industry for our ingredients and consumer business, we are making great progress on lowering our costs with "Fit to Win," designed to deliver operational excellence. We are pleased with the closing of our short-term financing that we announced this morning and are set for an excellent finish to 2022."
