Winsupply (Dayton, OH): John McKenzie, president, will retire effective Feb. 28, after 27 years with the company.
“John famously lived our culture, grew our organization, and expanded and improved our bench strength more than anyone before him has ever done,” said Rick Schwartz, chairman of Winsupply, in the press release. “He has prepared the current leadership team well for the opportunities ahead."
McKenzie began his career at Winsupply in 1996. He helped the company grow through his work in the company’s support services companies and Sourcing Services, and as president of Winsupply beginning in March 2020. Under his leadership, the number of local company entrepreneurs increased from 609 to 652, and three new regional distribution centers were added. McKenzie also helped to guide and grow Winsupply through the challenging times of the coronavirus pandemic.
Winsupply’s governance committee of the board of directors is now working on finding his successor.
