Essilor Canada announces
new president
Essilor Canada has announced the
nomination of Christophe Perreault
as President, effective immediately.
Christophe Perreault was previously
Chief Financial Officer of Essilor
Canada and has held several leadership
positions within Essilor Internation-
al throughout his eight-year tenure
with the company.
“Christophe was an obvious choice to
lead Essilor Canada, bringing both a
deep strategic understanding of our
company and our operations, a sound
financial background, as well as an
unwavering commitment to Essilor’s
mission of improving lives by improving
sight,” said John Carrier, Chief Oper-
ating Officer, Essilor International.
Christophe succeeds Barbara Heffez-
Piper who will join the team responsi-
ble for the Essilor and Luxottica
integration in North America. The
company thanks her for her passion
and accomplishments during her
time at Essilor Canada.
“Making eyecare and vision health a
key priority is something I’ve always
been passionate about. In Canada, the
demand for vision correction and vi-
sion protection continues to grow and
so is the number of Canadians with
unmet vision needs. I am committed
to continue working with our team,
the industry, and our valued eyecare
professionals to raise awareness
about the importance of eye health
in my country, as well as to provide
the highest quality products and ser-
vices to answer these growing needs.
We must ensure everyone has access
to their best possible vision to reach
our goal of eradicating poor vision in
one generation,” said Christophe
Perreault, President, Essilor Canada.
