FRAMINGTON HILLS, Mich. — RouteOne Canada announced today that Barry McMillan, who has led the company as president since 2003, will retire at the end of February.

According to company officials, McMillan has had a profound impact on building and establishing RouteOne’s presence in the Canadian marketplace.  Under his tenure, RouteOne Canada grew its network to include nearly all national and regional finance sources, numerous dealer service provider integration partners, and thousands of dealers who rely on RouteOne every day.

“I would like to personally thank Barry for his leadership, loyalty, and service to RouteOne over the years,” said Justin Oesterle, RouteOne Canada CEO. “I know that he is looking forward to his next chapter with pleasure and anticipation. He will be missed by his team, colleagues, and customers alike.”

As part of the transition, Anthony Goulbourne has been promoted to senior vice president, reporting directly to Oesterle. As a long-time employee of RouteOne and industry veteran, Goulbourne will assume day-to-day responsibilities of the organization, supported by his staff and the executive management team of RouteOne.
