The Company of Master Jewellers (CMJ) is an organisation established by independent retailers... and still led by leading independent retailers today.

“Since joining the CMJ, the support offered to us by their team and approved suppliers, as well as our fellow retail members, has been invaluable. The networking events have been one of the most important aspects – being able to learn from the experience and insights of our peers has been an enormous help.”
Amy Mellor
“Being a CMJ member means having access to excellent supplier choice, brilliant networking events and hands-on support whenever we need it.”
Charlotte Hewitt
"I have been stopped in my local high street and congratulated on my ability to offer such high-quality retail brochures and catalogues to customers as an independent local retailer. The marketing support we receive from the CMJ really is excellent, and that is just one of the many, many benefits that the group offers."
Phil Ainsworth
“As an independent jeweller, I could spend hours praising the support and financial benefits delivered by the CMJ. Suffice to say, the group has played an important role in the development of my business. From access to new suppliers to networking with my peers, they have offered great advice and both supported and encouraged my continued independence.”
Dee Brightwell
“I can say in all honesty that the CMJ has been instrumental in our smooth transition from a first generation to a second generation independent jewellers. The networking and support of my peers and the professionalism of the CMJ has given us the confidence to view the future with optimism. I strongly recommend joining the CMJ.”
Jonathan Hughes-Lewis
"I am delighted to join the CMJ as I feel this will help me gain valuable experience and develop long-term relationships in the jewellery industry with key suppliers.”

Rob Sherwin
"I just like to say a big thank you to the CMJ and also all the retailers on the WhatsApp group. Not only has it been most informative, it's also kept me sane. For me the WhatsApp group has made me feel I'm not alone (work wise) but that have a great support network behind me. So to just sum up: thank you all"
Steve Jones
"We are relatively new members and I am so glad and grateful to be be a part of such a strong, focused, hard-working group of individuals. The teamwork, communication and support [during lockdown] has been tremendous. These are the times when certain people and groups shine through, and the CMJ has been very professional. A huge thank you to the entire team."
Keeley Atkinson
"I wanted to take a moment to thank each of you for all you have done during lockdown, I can honestly say you’ve helped me every step of the way and the value of my membership is one thing I shall take away from this. I’m opening with confidence thanks to the CMJ. I have my amazing store graphics, my PPE , the amazing reopening manual, and more importantly my sanity, having listened, contributed and valued opinions from likeminded people, I’ve never felt alone."
Helen Molloy

"I would be happy to recommend the CMJ Growth & Learning Network meetings. This was a great and refreshing opportunity for our views to be heard and gave me confidence that the CMJ is moving forward progressively."
Steve Todd
"The networking opportunities and supplier discounts go without saying, but the ease of accounting with just one monthly statement is also easy to reconcile. It's really made a huge difference to us and our business. The CMJ represents extremely good value for money and it's an absolute must for anyone wishing to grow their business."
Andrew Hirshman
