North American jewellery businesses: Q2 2026

Jewelers Board of TradeAug 14, 2026

JBT tracks business listings, closures, new entrants and credit conditions across the US and Canada. Its public summary distinguishes business closures from other removals from the directory; the complete statistics are available to members.

What the report says

JBT lists 17,549 North American retail jewellers, down 271 year on year. Removal from a directory can reflect closure, a changed operating model or insufficient information; it does not always mean business failure.

JEWEL DAILY perspective

Our reading: separate the stock of businesses from openings, closures and mergers before judging a local retail opportunity. A shop leaving a mall may still operate online or by appointment.

Suppliers can compare these indicators with their own receivables. Stable customer counts accompanied by slower payment deserve examination. Member-only credit detail is not reproduced or inferred here.
