  • Chris Choquette is promoted to vice president, Western Canada. He will oversee the Western Plumbing and HVAC Business, AMRE and the day-to-day operations of the Industrial business in the region.

“The integration of our business positions us for success by allowing us to leverage the considerable strengths of our organization in a more coordinated way than ever before,” said Kevin Fancey, president, Wolseley Canada. “I’m confident under Chris and Sébastien’s leadership, we will strengthen our ability to deliver exceptional value to our customers.”

Choquette and Laforge are members of Wolseley Canada’s executive management team, reporting directly to Fancey.
