Six months after acquiring do-it-yourself retailer Rona, Lowe’s says it plans to convert 40 Rona stores outside Quebec to the Lowe’s name.
It’s part of a plan to differentiate the offering in big box stores, which will bear the Lowe’s name, from mid-sized stores, which will continue to be called Rona, Lowe’s Canada president and CEO Sylvain Prud’homme said in a presentation Monday.
