Dalton, Ga. — Looking to expand its presence in the Canadian market, Shaw Living recently hired Bruce Robertson as its sales manager for Canada.

Based in Toronto, Robertson reports to John McLeod, vice president of sales and marketing for mass merchants.

Robertson was most recently sales manager for the now-defunct Burlington Rug Co. Prior to that, he worked in related sales positions for Springs Industries.

“We are going head first into the Canadian market, and Bruce brings the experience, retail relationships and expertise within the mass market in Canada that we need,” McLeod said.
