What my clients say

WES SKITCH

The former Executive Vice-President of Best Buy and Future Shop Canada, Wes Skitch is an extremely well respected and trusted member of the retail community. He maintains close relationships with all C and EVP level management of major retailers in our markets and therefore brings about a significant amount of trust, knowledge and respect in our relationships with our retailers.

Wes’s deep retail expertise and extensive commercial acumen have been acquired over the course of his remarkable career. Having worked his way from the ground up, he possesses an unsurpassed understanding of retail operation and leadership management. Wes’ intuitive understanding of consumer electronics retail allowed him to develop and execute sales management and training programs that delivered exceptional bottom-line results and rapidly grew market share, at the expense of competitors.

In 1982, Wes accepted the task of launching Future Shop’s second store in Richmond, BC. Three years later, Wes was tasked with leading Future Shop’s Alberta expansion. Soon thereafter, Future Shop acquired the title of Canada’s number one consumer electronics retailer and Wes was promoted to Vice President of Operations of Canada, with responsibility for sales of $1.5 billion.

In 2003, Wes was tasked with the opening of a fleet of Best Buy stores under their banner as well as running and growing the profitable Future Shop brand.

Wes’ leadership played a key role in the positioning of a dual-brand strategy; Best Buy and Future Shop as the top consumer electronics retailers in Canada, with sales of approximately $6 billion and close to 22,000 employees. Wes went on to help Best Buy International develop a strategy for entering China’s highly fragmented market.

Wes’ deep understanding of retail operational effectiveness and his ability to work effectively with sr. executives to achieve results that exceeded expectations has earned him admiration of many clients including Best Buy International and Sony Canada, The Brick, Five Star Electronics (China), Phone House (Spain).
