Dick’s Lumber president Paul McKeown said: “ZyTech is known for providing customers with superior service and high-quality products. We are looking forward to better serving our customers through the combined Dick’s Lumber and ZyTech enterprise.

This is the first acquisition for Dick’s Lumber after private equity firm Sycamore Partners acquired Lowe’s Canadian retail business in February this year. The business is now operating under the name RONA.

Headquartered in Boucherville, Québec, RONA operates 450 corporate and affiliate stores under different banners, including Dick’s Lumber, RONA, Réno-Dépôt and Lowe’s.

RONA CEO Andrew Iacobucci said: “We are thrilled to welcome the ZyTech team to the Dick’s Lumber and RONA families. ZyTech is a very strong player in its field. This acquisition will strengthen our position in the Alberta and Saskatchewan markets and improve how we serve our valued customers.”
