Company rents out entire building in Soho.

John Hardy, a Hong Kong-based jewelry brand, will open its first U.S. location after signing a lease to take over all three floors of a Soho building in New York City, the Commercial Observer reports. Real estate broker Matthew Seigel told the news outlet that the company picked Soho “because of the heavy foot traffic in the retail-focused neighborhood,” noting that the 118 Prince St. location “stood out particularly because it is a one-purpose building – something that’s a rarity on the street.” All three floors total 3,600 square feet, and asking rent on the ground floor was $1,200 per square foot, the article says.

Ready to Relocate? Wilkerson Makes Your Move Seamless

When Brockhaus Jewelry decided to leave their longtime West Main Street storefront for a standalone building elsewhere in Norman, Oklahoma, owners John Brockhaus and Brad Shipman faced a familiar challenge: how to efficiently reduce inventory before the big move. Their solution? Partnering with liquidation specialists Wilkerson for a second time. "We'd already experienced Wilkerson's professionalism during a previous sale," Shipman recalls. "But their approach to our relocation event truly impressed us. They strategically prioritized our existing pieces while tactfully introducing complementary merchandise as inventory levels decreased." The carefully orchestrated sale didn't just meet targets—it shattered them. Asked if they'd endorse Wilkerson to industry colleagues planning similar transitions—whether relocating, retiring, or refreshing their space—both partners were emphatic in their approval. "The entire process was remarkably straightforward," Shipman notes. "Wilkerson delivered a well-structured program, paired us with a knowledgeable advisor, and managed every detail flawlessly from concept to completion."
