•Robert Sawyer |
Robert Sawyer, 59, will become Rona’s president and CEO next month. For more than 30 years with Metro Inc, the grocery store giant. Most recently he has been chief operating officer and executive vice president. His arrival is being cast in various ways by analysts who respect his knowledge and capacities as a leader but in some cases wonder whether a background in food retailing fits with the needs of the struggling Rona franchise. Nonetheless, Rona is praising Mr. Sawyer up to the sky. Another analyst noted the Mr. Sawyer is Anglophone, something of a departure for a company steeped in Quebecois culture. But Robert Chevrier, executive chairman of Rona’s board of directors said “Robert has the operational and turnaround expertise needed to put Rona back on the path to profitable growth and increase value for all of our stakeholders.” Global
Lululemon yanks “see-through” black yoga pants
by
•Lululemon has pulled all of its new black yoga pants off the racks after complaints that they just show too much through the fabric. The pants are made in Taiwan and it appears that the company and manufacturer are at odds as to how this happened. While Lululemon seems to be indicating that the problem lies with the manufacturer, the Taiwanese supplier says it followed design specifications and the retailer merely misjudged customer tastes. “We expect this issue will have a significant impact on our financial results,” the company said in the statement. “We have used the same manufacturing partner on key fabrics since 2004. This event is not the result of changing manufacturers or quality of ingredients.” Lululemon said it will offer full refunds or exchanges to customers who bought the black Luon pants after March 1 either online or in stores.
