March 9, 2012 – Dorothy Tully-Petersen—formerly national sales manager, distribution (Canada) for Alcan Cable—joined Wesco Distribution Canada LP as director of marketing for Canada, effective February 21.

“Dorothy brings a great marketing background and valuable range of electrical industry experience to our group,” said Harald Henze, group vice-president and general manager, Wesco Distribution Canada LP. “We look forward to having her marketing expertise with us this year as we expand our services to our Canadian customers.”

On the forefront of Dorothy’s new role will be preparations for the opening of Wesco’s latest—and North America’s largest, says the company—distribution centre in Mississauga later this spring. Dorothy is based in Wesco’s Hood Road offices in Markham, Ont.

Prior to Alcan, Dorothy worked at Ideal Industries Canada. (Photo A. Capkun from MCEE 2011)
