The Top Largest Jewelry Stores in the Country

Let’s face it. Big Corporate Jewelry Chains do a couple of things really nice.

Probably nicer than about every Jeweler out there…

WHY?

Because they offer things like:

  • Great Value
  • Great Warranties
  • Convience

So let’s take a closer look at these Humongous Chain Stores that cross the U.S.A. and Canada…

Value

Big Corporate Jewelry Stores give great deals. They should! They buy in bulk for hundreds of stores across the land.

When you buy in bulk, you save money. Everyone knows that!

These savings can be passed on to the consumer!

We all win!

Warranties

Some Chain Stores also provide some of the biggest and Best Warranties* in the business:

  • Lifetime Diamond Guarantees
  • Extended Service Plans
  • Payment Protection
  • Great Return Policies
  • Good Trade In Values
  • Interest Free Financing

Things like that are hard to beat!

*Actual Policies and Guarantees are listed under each Jeweler as obtained from their official website!

ALSO NOTE: These Policies and Guarantees may change! These were the Policies as of the day of this post 2-26-2013!

Convience

One of the biggest pluses to these big corporations is LOCATION!

Just check your local mall, and you’re sure to see their familiar pressence.

It makes buying easy, especially if you move across the country and want to keep the same warranties, policies and plans intact!

The Biggest Jewelers in North America are?

Which companies have the most stores and locations?

Let’s find out!

This list below is of the top largest Jewelry Chains, based upon how many stores they have, not how much money they make (but they do sort of go hand in hand don’t they?).

This of course, doesn’t judge their actual quality, merchandise or service. That’s for you to decide!

How big are they?

MASSIVE!!!

What’s funny is the fact that many of these Jewelry Corporations people have never heard of before. Why is that? Because they don’t go by their “Corporate” name, they go by different Jewelry Store Names that they brand and advertise and put in people’s faces and thoughts.

For example, the Zale Corporation not only has Zale Stores across the country, but they also own the People’s Jewellers, Piercing Pagoda and Gordon Jewelers… amoung others.

So let’s dig in and look at these Corporations, their headquaters, phone numbers, and any reported sales for 2011.

You’d be amazed at how much they make…

• this Warranty covers only the lack of conformity of the Diamond with each of the characteristics
stated on the Certificate at the time of sale and does not cover damage to the Diamond that occurs
after the date of sale;
• the condition of the Diamond will be determined by examination under no greater than 10x
magnification and by standard gemological techniques;

or absence of a feature on the plot or diagram will not be covered by this Warranty;

4 Comments on THE TOP LARGEST JEWELRY STORE CHAINS

  1. The comparative quality and price of Salows?

  2. Thank You for this information. I really liked the way you have presented this article.

  3. Thank You for sharing this information. I really liked the way you have presented this article.

  4. I spent approx. 25 years in the retail jewelry industry. I started in a department store and when I was bitten by the jewelry bug. I decided to take some courses through the GIA. I worked in some chain stores Zales (2) and Helzberg. I was with a small family jeweler for my last 9 years. The quality of the merchandise was vastly different. Yes the chains buy in quantity but the quality is not searched for, each gem is not inspected. Mountings are hollowed out at times. All of their diamonds fall into a color & clarity range. A single diamond is 1 clarity, color, carat weight and proportion of the cut, yet they can only be one. Your most important C is the cut. Many cutters, cut for max weight, the extra weight makes it 2 deep or larger and more shallow. Meaning you lose the bright light and fire of a well cut diamond. The value is better with the smaller stores
