RCC’s Diane J. Brisebois receives Canadian Grocer’s inaugural Star Women in Grocery Icon Award
June 23, 2025Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of recognizing hundreds of exceptional women. For 2025, we’re thrilled to introduce a new distinction: the Star Women in Grocery Icon Award.
This special honour will be presented annually to one woman widely admired for her leadership and contributions to the Canadian grocery industry.
In its inaugural year, the award is presented to Diane J. Brisebois, president and CEO of the Retail Council of Canada (RCC).
There are few more recognizable advocates for Canadian retail than Brisebois.
For more than 30 years, Brisebois has successfully led RCC, an organization that represents retailers of all stripes, including grocers. During her tenure, Brisebois is credited with elevating the organization and firmly establishing it as the voice of retail in Canada.
