ST. JACOBS, Ont. — Darrin Sayles has been appointed senior director, national sales and operations at Home Hardware Stores Ltd., effective September 8. Most recently at Carter’s, where he held the role of senior director of retail sales and operations, Sayles has also held operational leadership positions at Campus Crew, American Eagle and Jean Machine. The four retail operations directors—Jeff Martin, Grant Allen, Tim Dietrich and Mario Durocher—and their regional teams will report to Sayles.
All Ontario retail sales and operations managers will report directly to Allen, who is director for the central region.
Dale MacPherson has been appointed senior director, store operations support. The business development team, formerly led by Dunc Wilson before his retirement earlier this year, was previously realigned to report directly to MacPherson. But MacPherson will now oversee construction and real estate, while continuing to provide support and oversight for the dealer application process.
