Best Buy CEO Corie Barry to Step Down, Jason Bonfig Named Successor as Sales Stay Sluggish
Best Buy announced Wednesday that CEO Corie Barry plans to step down as of Oct. 31. Jason Bonfig, a long-time company executive who currently serves as chief customer, product and fulfillment officer, will step in as chief executive the following day, Nov. 1, and join the board at that time. The move comes as the electronics retailer looks to jumpstart growth after an extended period of sluggish sales.
