Outdoor Living Supply (“OLS”), one of the nation’s largest and fastest-growing distributors of outdoor living products, today announced the appointment of Vincent DeMichele as Chief Financial Officer, effective October 1, 2026. DeMichele will join OLS following a successful career leading finance organizations and supporting growth, operational performance, and strategic investment across the distribution, building products, and luxury retail industries.
