(PRESS RELEASE) SEATTLE WA — Ben Bridge Jeweler announced the acquisition of Olympic Manufacturing, a full-service jewelry repair and manufacturing company based in Bellevue, Washington. This strategic move marks a significant step towards greater vertical integration, enabling Ben Bridge to offer enhanced, faster, and more customized services to its customers and support the local jewelry community.
Olympic Manufacturing has been a trusted partner of Ben Bridge for over three decades. Founded in 1975, the family-owned business has built a stellar reputation for expert repair and custom craftsmanship throughout the region. The acquisition brings Olympic Manufacturing’s long-tenured team and comprehensive suite of services under the Ben Bridge umbrella. Services include CAD design, in-house casting, laser repair, engraving, and full custom jewelry creation.
The Olympic Manufacturing team will continue to operate from their current location providing local customers with the same familiar faces and exceptional service. Additionally, they will support Ben Bridge’s wider retail network with enhanced custom and repair offerings.
“We are thrilled to officially welcome this exceptional team into the Ben Bridge family,” said Lisa Bridge, President & CEO of Ben Bridge Jeweler. “By bringing their talent and capabilities in-house, we can ensure even more quality control, efficiency, and personal attention for our clients. Their unmatched expertise and dedication to the craft align perfectly with our mission to provide the highest level of service to our customers.”
This newly acquired facility will also open the door for Ben Bridge to expand business-to-business services. By offering manufacturing and repair support to other independent jewelers, Ben Bridge hopes to help strengthen the local jewelry network. “We are excited to offer our capabilities as a resource,” added Bridge. “We believe that by supporting fellow jewelers in our community, we can build a stronger, more vibrant industry for everyone.”
The Olympic Jeweler acquisition will serve as a vital extension of Ben Bridge’s service operations, further enabling quick turnaround times and personalized care while also creating new avenues for growth, innovation, and shared success.
