Sobeys appoints Quebec lead
Yves Laverdière takes over as president of Sobeys' Quebec division
Sobeys has named Yves Laverdière president of its Quebec business unit.
The appointment was announced Monday morning, less than a month after former Sobeys Quebec president Claude Tessier left the role to become chief financial officer at Alimentation Couche-Tard.
Laverdière has worked with Sobeys Quebec for 19 years, most recently as senior vice-president, merchandising for the IGA banner.
Sobeys manages nine banners in Quebec, including IGA Extra, IGA, Rachelle-Bery, Marche Bonichoix, Les Marches Tradition, IGA Express, IGA mini, Shell and Bonsoir.
