National Jeweler released its ‘State of the Majors’ report.

NEW YORK – Signet Jewelers Ltd. has topped National Jeweler’s 2017 list of “$100 Million Supersellers.”

The ranking is part of the publication’s new State of the Majors report, which analyzes the performance of the country’s largest jewelers and the current state of jewelry retailing. Rounding out the top five are Wal-Mart, Macy’s, Costco and Tiffany & Co.

National Jeweler notes that even as the number of retail locations falls, the number of firms selling more than $100 million in jewelry and watches climbed last year.

The upshot is that retailers are “scooping up the jewelry customers of now-shuttered stores,” according to the publication.

The State of the Majors consists of two lists analyzing 2016 sales data, according to a press release. The $100 Million Supersellers list ranks the largest U.S. jewelers by annual sales, including both specialty jewelers and multi-line retailers. The Top 50 North American Retail Jewelry Chains list ranks specialty jewelers by number of stores.

National Jeweler Editor-in-Chief Michelle Graff said the report is “an excellent resource for anyone who needs data on the fine jewelry industry.”

The report also includes articles on the states of the diamond industry, colored stone market and jewelry design, the release notes.

“The National Jeweler team is very proud of this year’s State of the Majors,” said National Jeweler Publisher Matthew Tratner. “Our editorial and sales teams put in a lot of effort to make it a robust issue packed with useful insight. Now back in annual circulation, we are thrilled by the response from the industry and know that its release has been widely anticipated.”

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
