BJ's Wholesale names Baldwin CEO
The current president and COO of Westborough discount retailer BJ's Wholesale Club, Inc. -- Christopher J. Baldwin -- will take on the role of CEO beginning next year, the company announced Friday.
Baldwin began serving as the company’s president and COO in September. Beginning on Feb. 1, he will take over from current CEO Laura Sen, who will assume the role of non-executive chairwoman. While Baldwin will handle the ongoing operations of the company, Sen and the company’s board members will be responsible for setting the long-term strategy of the company.
Baldwin said the company will continue to focus on its value proposition to customers who purchase products in bulk. Baldwin, who has more than 30 years of experience in the retail and consumer products industry, was most recently the CEO of the Hess Retail Corporation.
BJ’s is headquartered in Westborough and has 211 membership club warehouses and 126 gas stations in 15 states.
