BlueLinx Holdings Inc. announced that Mike Wilson will retire as the company’s chief commercial officer, effective Jan. 4, 2026, and serve as senior advisor to the CEO through Aug. 1, 2026. Leo Oei, vice president, national accounts, will succeed Wilson and become chief commercial officer on Jan. 5, 2026.

“We deeply appreciate Mike’s significant contributions and wish him and his family the best in his well-deserved retirement,” said Shyam Reddy, president and CEO. “Mike strengthened our relationships with key customers and supply partners, played a pivotal role in expanding our product portfolio in critical categories, geographies and customer channels, and built lasting relationships across the business and industry. 

"Looking ahead, I believe that Leo is the perfect choice to fill this critical commercial leadership role so we can leverage his experience running local markets, product management, and national accounts to continue executing on our sales growth strategy.”

Wilson said the relationships the company has built together and the progress made as a team are among his proudest achievements.

"I am confident that Leo will carry our commercial vision forward and that BlueLinx will continue to thrive in the years ahead," he said.

Oei brings over 25 years of experience in commercial, procurement, supply chain, and operations leadership roles in multiple industries to his new role. In his current position, he leads the national accounts and multi-family team. In a news release, BlueLinx said he has been instrumental in expanding the company's geographic footprint and product offering with key strategic suppliers, as well as driving and growing multi-family and national accounts businesses.

“I am honored to take on the role of chief commercial officer for BlueLinx,” said Oei. “With our scale, relationships, and outstanding team members, we plan to continue serving our customers and suppliers at the highest levels.”
