SpartanNash has promoted Paul Weis from director of financial planning and analysis to VP, distribution finance.
Weis will oversee finance for the company’s global supply chain and report to EVP and CFO Jason Monaco.
“Our distribution network is the backbone of the company, serving independent customers, national accounts and our own stores. Paul’s experience and leadership will ensure our supply chain continues to deliver on our long-term goals and key performance indicators,” Monaco said.
“Paul has been integral to the successful acquisition of several businesses during his time here, and we are proud to promote him as part of our ‘People First,’ high-performance culture.”
SpartanNash’s wholesale business accounts for about 70 percent of net sales and is supported by 19 distribution centers. It serves more than 2,300 retail locations, including 147 SpartanNash-operated stores. Weis’ role will provide strategic financial leadership as the company continues to grow wholesale customer profitability and expand its geographic footprint.
Weis joined SpartanNash in June 2017 as manager of financial planning and analysis and was promoted to director of financial planning and analysis in 2022. Prior to SpartanNash, he spent nearly a decade working in business valuations at Plante Moran. He is a graduate of Grand Valley State University with a degree in finance and economics.
Weis’ promotion follows other finance VP moves at SpartanNash.
Weis’ predecessor, Dustin Manning, is assuming the role of VP of inventory management in the company’s supply chain department. Former VP of Financial Planning and Analysis Justin Vire has accepted a new role as VP of cost leadership. The team will be led by Senior Director of Financial Planning and Analysis Kim Craven and report to VP, Corporate Controller and Principal Accounting Officer Todd Riksen.
