Dollar Tree Appoints Ex-Walgreens Exec as Chief Supply Chain Officer

Dollar Tree has appointed an ex-Walgreens exec as its new chief supply chain officer.

Retail Dive is reporting that Roxanne Weng has taken up the post. According to her LinkedIn profile, she previously served as Uline’s vice president of creative operations. The executive spent over 30 years with Walgreens, where she retired as chief supply chain officer.

“With three decades of distinguished leadership across supply chain strategy, logistics optimization, and distribution network management, her proven expertise aligns perfectly with the Dollar Tree growth trajectory,” CEO Mike Creedon said in a statement.

Weng stated that she will prioritize keeping stores consistently and reliably stocked. This comes amid several measures that would reduce the discount retailer’s overall shop count.

In December 2024, Dollar Tree announced that Creedon, its former chief operating officer, would be appointed CEO permanently. This followed CEO Rick Dreiling’s resignation in November due to personal health issues.

Stewart Glendinning, the former CEO of Express, was then hired in March as the company’s new CFO. Glendinning formerly worked as CFO at Tyson Foods and has been with Dollar Tree since January in a senior role, overseeing transformation activities.

Dollar Tree Just Sold Family Dollar for $1 Billion

News of these new leadership roles comes hot on the heels of the sale of Family Dollar for $1 billion, which the discount retailer announced last month.

The sale to two private equity firms marks a significant loss for the retailer, which initially purchased Family Dollar 10 years ago for $9 billion.

“This is a major milestone in our multi-year transformation journey to help us fully achieve our potential,” Creedon said in the sale’s press release. “We will continue to grow and optimize our Dollar Tree business to maximize value for Dollar Tree associates, customers, and shareholders with an enhanced focus on compelling initiatives, including our expanded assortment, significant planned new store openings across the United States, and transactions that advance our growth strategy.”

“Since 1959, Family Dollar has served its customers by offering convenient, high-quality products at a great value and the business is a pillar in communities across the United States,” said Matt Perkal, partner at Brigade, one of the two equity firms involved in the acquisition. “We look forward to continuing and enhancing Family Dollar as its own enterprise, which we are confident will drive greater success for the business and value for all of Family Dollar’s stakeholders, including employees, customers, and communities.”
