Didier Hernoux, 46, is now the Chairman and Managing Director of Castorama Direct. In this capacity he will have responsibility for both the Castorama online shop (www.castorama.fr) and the group’s B-to-B activities under the name of Dynastock. He will also be involved in development work within the fields of organisation and human resources. In September 2001 Hernoux was appointed Director of Human Resources for the Castorama group, a position he held until he became interim head of Castorama France in the summer of 2002. This came to an end when Philippe Tible took over as Chairman in February 2003.
