New president announced for Legrand | AV for North and Central America

Pam Hoppel will drive all aspects of the AV business, including increasing customer satisfaction, operational excellence, sales, and market share growth

Legrand, the global specialist in electrical and digital building infrastructures, has announced Pam Hoppel as president of Legrand | AV. As part of the LNCA CEO Executive Committee, Hoppel will drive all aspects of the AV business, including increasing customer satisfaction, operational excellence, sales, and market share growth.

Prior to joining Legrand, she held various leadership positions at Delta Faucet Company where, most recently as VP of trade, she built and implemented both the trade and international vision as well as the strategy to deliver profitable above-market sales growth and margin expansion. Before her role as VP of trade, Hoppel led the retail business as VP, during which time Delta Faucet Company was named The Home Depot Marketing Partner of the Year, a company first.

She was also president and general manager for Kidde, one of America’s largest manufacturers of smoke alarms and fire safety products. There, Hoppel led profitable growth by setting the global business strategy for the company; specifically leading all sales, marketing, and communications along with five global distribution and manufacturing facilities, two regionalised contact centres, and a global engineering centre.

“Made up of nine brands and multiple acquisitions, Legrand | AV continues to be a leader in the AV space,” said John Selldorff, president and CEO, Legrand, North and Central America. “Pam’s background outside of AV brings an open-minded perspective to help the organisation move to the next level of innovation and growth. She’s a very commercially oriented person who understands customers, markets, the importance of service, and managing complexity. I’m excited to have her join the company.”
