Management

"Working with Grosnor for over 10 years. Began by assisting in the management of the Toy and Board Game categories. Today, independently managing multiple toy lines, as well as assisting in internal Marketing Projects and daily Website Maintenance. Outside the office you'll find me playing guitar, video games, reading, and running out of space for all things this industry has to offer."

"With almost twenty years of experience, I am a hard-working, passionate, energetic and results oriented leader with an outstanding track record in sales, people management, brand marketing and growing strategic partnerships. My background includes leading dynamic sales teams in fast-paced environments. My experience includes working with clients from Professional Sports teams, Corporate Brands and licensed sports products with an extensive network of retail sales channels in North America. I recently joined the Grosnor team as a National Account Manager. We represent many of the top brands and assortments in the industry. We have a knowledgeable team of experts ensuring we are always offering trending and top selling products to our customers. I am very excited to create long-term relationships and developing new business while earning retailer trust. Away from the office, I keep very busy. I have been a part-time faculty instructor at Durham College in the Sport Management Program for almost ten years. I enjoy giving back to the program that jumpstarted my career in the business of sport. My family is very active and we enjoy travelling. I am honored that I have the opportunity to help coach my daughter's hockey and lacrosse teams which are passionate sports of mine growing up."

"In 1988, I started working with Rob Roche at his retail trading card store. In the years since, I have worked at almost every position within the company from sweeping and vacuuming the floors after school to where I am today. In 2000, upon completion of my schooling, I came on staff full time with Grosnor as an Account Manager. I have worked in both the Ajax and Toronto locations at this position. In January of 2007, I took on the role of Sales Manager in the Ajax office. I look forward to utilizing the skills I have learned and developed over the past years in helping to serve you, the customer!"

"I started my hobby journey as a kid in school opening his first pack back in 2002, since then, I haven't looked back. This hobby has taken me across the world whether it has been collecting, playing tournaments, conventions and more! Having since managed a Hobby store, I decided to take the next step in the industry and join the sales team at Grosnor Distribution, where I provide my past experiences and knowledge to help grow our customers in this incredible hobby."

"I graduated from York University here in Toronto with a Political Science b.a. in 2003, and found my way to Grosnor about a year later. I had dabbled in the retail side of the industry over the years, but never done anything large scale. As a collector my interests and experience have been all over the card collecting field - from Sports as a kid to Gaming, and now Non-Sports. Learning about all of the diverse, and ever expanding, inventory that Grosnor has to offer from action figures to all manner of NHL licensed merchandise, has been an interesting challenge. As Grosnor's bilingual Account Manager for roughly 5 years now, my accounts include our french speaking customers. When I'm not helping customers get what they need from us on their store shelves, I manage Grosnor's Ultra Pro and related supply brands."

"Carson brings a wealth of knowledge and experience from his career in the toy industry that has spanned two decades. He spent his early days as a sales rep for the Wilko Group managing some of the top toy brands in the Canadian market including Ravensburger, Cardinal Games, Cranium, Rubiks Cube, Innovation First (Hexbugs), Rainbow Loom and many others. From there, he went on to become Country Head of Funko as well as holding senior sales roles at Kroeger inc. and Everest Toys. When he is not working, you can find him on the Golf course, at his cottage on the east coast or spending time with friends and family. We are very excited to have him join the team to oversee the hobby division and business development at Grosnor."

"As Brand Manager for Toys and Games I oversee the sourcing and ordering of a broad range of products from action figures, novelties and statues to trading card games, family and board games. My mission is to help our retailers' business move forward in the collectibles industry by providing them with the latest and most popular items available. By broadening our product selection in addition to Trading Card Games and Collectibles, our retailers can benefit from a more diverse range of products in which to offer their customers. I have been at Grosnor for over ten years, previously serving four years as an Account Manager then moving to my present position. Having been in the trading card and collectibles industry since 1989, starting in a retail store then moving to a distribution warehouse, I have had experience in all areas of the industry from sales to shipping. Should you have any suggestions or information on new or existing products please feel free to contact me."
