Technology to enhance in-store experience

The arrival of the new handheld mobile devices generated plenty of excitement within our teams. Why is rolling out these new state-of-the-art, compact, versatile smartphones across our network of RONA, Lowe's and Reno-Depot stores such a game changer?

Previously time-consuming tasks are now much easier. A customer has a question about a product? Employees can simply scan the product and voilà – all the information now rests in the palm of their hand. Want to verify information with a subject-matter expert? Colleagues can be reached at the push of a button. Need to check emails? No worries, there’s an app for that. Power is depleting? Swapping for a fully-charged battery takes less time than saying: “Thank you, RONA Tech Team”!

This all-in-one mobile device is an even more powerful tool with the content built by our developers. Not only are they improving the functionalities of existing apps, but they are also working on creating additional, more efficient user-facing apps in the Android environment. Their challenging and rewarding work significantly lightens our associates’ daily tasks and has a positive impact on our overall performance as a company.

With all our recent investments to implement new technologies like this one and incoming projects, our IT team is hiring! If you are a creative yet analytical developer, know your way around scripts and ALM, and are on the lookout for a top employer and rad colleagues, then we could be perfect for each other!
