Kelowna, British Columbia – September 23, 2024 – WRI Supply today announced that Frank Braeuer, General Manager, will retire effective January 1st, 2025, after 32 years of dedicated service. Concurrently, WRI Supply is pleased to appoint Cameron Wilson as General Manager, effective October 1st, 2024.
Frank has been a pivotal force at WRI since joining in 1992, driving key initiatives and contributing significantly to the company’s success. Under his leadership, WRI became a nationally recognized supplier of 3M films and, more recently, was appointed the Master Distributor for 3M™ DI-NOC™ Architectural Finishes in Canada.
“It has been an honour to work as a supplier to this exciting industry. I will miss the many talented and dedicated people I have worked with these many years—from customers and suppliers to fellow team members. I feel very fortunate,” said Frank. “As I step into retirement, I am heartened to know that WRI is in excellent hands with Cameron. I look forward to watching WRI continue to thrive and grow under his leadership.”
Cameron, who has served as the Vancouver Branch Manager at ND Graphics for 12 years and also held responsibility for the Winnipeg Branch for 5 years, will bring his extensive knowledge of the sign industry to the role and is well-positioned to lead WRI Supply into its next phase of growth.
“We are grateful for Frank’s remarkable contributions and leadership over the years,” said Mark West, President of ND Graphics. “We wish him the very best in retirement. At the same time, we are excited to welcome Cameron into his new role. Cameron’s vision and experience make him the ideal person to build upon the strong foundation Frank has established.”
