RONA INC. RECRUITS CHANTAL GLENISSON TO DIRECT RENO-DEPOT EXPANSION
Rona Inc. is appointing Chantal Glenisson to the position of senior vice-president and general manager of Reno-Depot. She therefore joins Rona's executive committee, and will report directly to president and chief executive officer Robert Sawyer.
Before joining Rona, Ms. Glenisson occupied the position of senior vice-president, operations, for Quebec, at Walmart. She has led a very successful career in the retail industry over the last 25 years, namely for a major food distributor.
"We are proud to welcome to our team an experienced retail manager of Chantal Glenisson's calibre," said president and CEO Mr. Sawyer. "We undertook a major transformation of Reno-Depot in 2014, and our revamping of the store concept seems to be working. Consumers, particularly professionals and contractors, have been quick to express their enthusiasm for the new Reno-Depot concept, which has motivated us to export this success to the rest of Canada beginning in 2015. Chantal will play a key role in leading this expansion while strengthening our presence in Quebec."
Rona recently announced the opening of two Reno-Depot stores outside Quebec in 2015, in Aurora, Ont., and Calgary Centre-North, Alta. In Quebec, the network comprises 16 stores, with a 17th opening its doors in Drummondville next year.
