Our speaker on Monday will be Kris Dinel, Director Agri-Business Western Fair District. Kris has made his mark on the city of London throughout his career. Spending his first 17 years working in various roles within the Western Fair District, wearing hats at the Sports Centre, sales and marketing, entertainment, as the Fair Manager and now as the Director of Agri-Business, leading the overall strategy and vision of the agricultural mandate of the District.
Prior to his return to WFD, he spent 8 years nurturing two small businesses that unfortunately fell victim to the pandemic. Later working for Lennox Industries for three years as the Southwestern Ontario Territory Manager.
Away from work Kris spends time with his family, his wife Stacy for 20 years, and his four children. Each day starts early for Kris walking their two Labs. The London Community means a lot to Kris, he was previously a board member with the Chamber of Commerce and Tourism London and looks forward to spending more time volunteering within the community he calls home. Kris will introduce us to the present and future Western Fair District.
