Our Story
More About Jedco Ltd
Based in Edmonton, Alberta, Jedco Ltd is a family owned-and-operated manufacturing jewellery business, established in 1948. Founded by four military mechanics upon returning from serving in World War II, the story didn't start here. Before establishing the Jedco Ltd, Don Plummer, Fred Maxim, Harry Broadhead, and Wally Philips men were employed at Jacoby Brothers, Vancouver’s first manufacturing jeweller. However, in the year 1948, one of them left the company and founded Jedco Ltd. The other three individuals followed him over the next few years. When Don retired, his son-in-law took over the business, who is still involved along with new partners.
In the years since, Jedco Ltd has become the go-to source for custom-designed jewellery in Edmonton and beyond for over 70 years. From gifts to wedding bands, we can deliver a distinctive piece each and every time. We carry diamond sets, bracelets, gold chains, earrings, and pendants at our boutique. Also, we are an authorized dealer of Bulova, Seiko, and Pulsar.
We also have a certified goldsmith on-site for jewellery appraisals, jewellery repairs, engraving, and insurance replacement services. If you have any questions about our products or services, contact us today.
