MONTREAL — Kim Chanel Vallée-Séguin, the daughter of Shunga President Sylvain Séguin, has joined the company as business development director.
“Kim will be in charge of product development at first,” Séguin said, noting that Vallée-Séguin will help in the creative process and coordinate all steps of product creation, while learning all aspects of the business gradually.
Vallée-Séguin recently graduated from Concordia University in Montreal with a Bachelor’s degree in Commerce majoring in Marketing. She worked in the business communications department of Pratt & Whitney Canada for a couple of months before finishing her studies. She steps up in the family business to learn and start, hopefully, a long career in the industry, the company says.
“Kim will be with me on various customers master classes to learn the different aspects of the business as well” says Manon Vallée, vice president and also mother of Kim.
“This is a great opportunity for me to gain hands-on experience in all spheres of the business world,” Vallée-Séguin said. “I see this as an exciting new challenge and I look forward to bringing a breath of fresh air into the company.”
Vallée-Séguin, who says she prefers to go by Kim, will be at erofame in the Shunga booth.
