Meierotto Jewelers in Kansas City has left its 12,000-square-foot building for a much larger home in a development that will also include hotels, restaurants, apartments and other businesses.

The Kansas City Star describes the new structure, which has 34,000 square feet on two stories, as a “stunner.” Features include “14-foot ceiling on the first floor and sparkling chandeliers” along with “cozy sofas in front of a fireplace.”

The business, which has 40 employees, had long outgrown its old digs.

“We want to help the business grow and expand and appeal to a whole new generation of customers,” said Meierotto, whose parents, Dennis and Carol Meierotto, launched the store in 1979.

The new store is located within the $134 million One North development in North Kansas City.

Family Legacy, New Chapter: How Wilkerson Turns 89 Years of History Into Future Success

After 89 years of serving the Albany community, Harold Finkle Your Jeweler faced a pivotal decision. For third-generation owner Justin Finkle, the demanding hours of running a small business were taking precious time away from his young family. "After 23 years, I decided this was the time for me," Finkle explains. But closing a business with nearly nine decades of inventory and customer relationships isn't something easily managed alone. Wilkerson's comprehensive approach transformed this challenging transition into a remarkable success story. Their strategic planning handled everything from advertising and social media to inventory management and staffing — elements that would overwhelm most jewelers attempting to navigate a closing sale independently. The results speak volumes. "Wilkerson gave us three different tiers of potential goals," Finkle notes. "We've reached that third tier, that highest goal already, and we still have two weeks left of the sale." The partnership didn't just meet financial objectives—it exceeded them ahead of schedule.
