SiteOne Landscape Supply Inc., Roswell, Ga., announced on Feb. 15 that Scott Salmon will be joining the company as Executive Vice President of Strategy and Development, effective March 11. The company noted that he has a 17-year track record with Oldcastle Inc., Atlanta, where he held both Strategy and Development and Field Operating roles.

Salmon graduated from the U.S. Air Force Academy and became an F-16 pilot and flight commander. He received a Master of Public Policy from Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government.
“Scott worked for me as Vice President of Strategy and Development for four years while at Oldcastle APG during a time where we doubled the business both organically and through acquisition to over $2 billion in sales,” said SiteOne CEO Doug Black.
“He then went on to run the Lawn and Garden Division of APG, where he has been President for the last six years. During his time at Oldcastle Lawn and Garden, Scott grew the business with strong organic sales growth and through acquisition. He brings to SiteOne a wealth of M&A experience and a tremendous track record of success during his career at Oldcastle. We are confident in Scott’s ability to help us execute our growth strategy and lead our acquisition program.
“In order to ensure a seamless transition, Pascal Convers will now remain at SiteOne until the end of April and will assist in a consulting capacity through July 2019,” added Black. “I would like to thank Pascal for his dedication to our company over the past five years and his help in positioning us for outstanding performance and growth in the years to come.”
