Rona Inc, the leading home-improvement retailer, and distributor in Canada, has appointed Andrew Iacobucci as its new CEO. This decision comes shortly after the company announces job cuts affecting 500 employees nationwide.

“I am honoured to join RONA, a strong company and brand that have been serving Canadians for close to 85 years,” said Andrew Iacobucci. “I look forward to working with the teams to bring the company’s vision to life and help set the foundation for success well into the future.”
