President of Fellowes Canada To Retire

Fellowes has announced that Jim Edmonds will be retiring as President of Fellowes Canada.

Effective from the end of March, his departure concludes a career spanning 30 years with the company.

“Jim’s contributions to Fellowes have been extensive. During his tenure, he has served in many capacities, not only as the leader of our Canadian subsidiary, but he was also instrumental in assisting with the development of our Mexican and Caribbean businesses,” commented Fellowes CEO John Fellowes.

Edmonds will be succeeded by current VP of Sales and Marketing Jane Gleadall, who will assume day-to-day activities from next month. She brings to the role more than 30 years of office products experience having worked with manufacturers including BIC, Esselte and ACCO. Following Gleadall’s promotion, current Senior Sales Manager Rob Runtas will assume the position of Director of Sales at Fellowes Canada.

John Fellowes added:

“As we work towards accomplishing our plans and goals for Canada, we are confident [Gleadall] will deliver strong results by building on our historic core capabilities while also strategically expanding in new channel and category opportunities.”
