How to be #1 in your market

Our goal is that each and every RONA store, from the largest big-box to the smallest hardware store, be number one in its local market.

We trust we have a winning formula in our hands, and we’re more than happy to share it with dealer-owners from across the nation.

Olympic Sponsorship

In 2005, RONA became the Official Home Improvement Partner for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games in Vancouver and Whistler. In 2002, the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City racked up more than 13 billion viewers worldwide, with the average Canadian watching close to two hours each day during the event. In 2010, the Canadian broadcast ratings will be even higher with Canada as the host nation.
Canadian Football League

As the CFL’s ‘Official Home Improvement Retailer,’ RONA will enjoy tremendous exposure this football season on national TV. Moreover, every CFL player will proudly wear a RONA jersey patch in both pre-season and regular season action.
All RONA dealers have exclusive access to the eRONA Web-based system to get all the information they need to develop their business: the Merchandiser, a sku’s catalog, an online order system, marketing activities, merchandising instructions, planograms, flyers, and much more.
