Imperial Distributors, a distributor and merchandiser of non-food supermarket items, announced on Wednesday a spate of leadership changes, including the promotion of Joe Kirby to president.
Kirby joined the Worcester company in 2003, most recently serving as executive vice president. He replaces Herb Daitch, who retired.
At the same time, Naomi Sleeper has been promoted to fill the executive vice president position. Sleeper, the third generation in her family to work with the company, has been with Imperial Distributors since 2013.
The third leadership change is the promotion of Derek Potter to vice president of retailer services and service, an expansion of his previous role. Potter has worked with the company since 2001.
“For several years we have been working on a leadership succession plan and I am thrilled to announce these promotions today,” said CEO Michael Sleeper, in a statement. “All three of these leaders have great strengths and collectively represent almost 50 years’ experience with our company and our valued customers.”
