The Oppenheimer Group has announced in a press release the appointment of David Wazny to its Vancouver-based sales team on 30 April.

Wazny will be responsible for marketing the full range of Oppenheimer products to customers in western Canada, while providing general support to the marketer’s Canadian sales strategy.

Before coming to Oppenheimer, Wazny worked as a produce department manager for four years at Vancouver-based Save-on-Foods where he controlled inventory levels of around 200 lines of product while executing merchandising programs and product placement throughout the department.

“David brings hands-on knowledge of the produce industry from the retail perspective into the role,” said Walt Breeden, Oppenheimer’s Western Canadian sales manager.

“Those skills are invaluable as we enhance partnerships and communication with our retail customers.”
