We are a fashion lifestyle brand of big dreams, colorful confidence, and inspired design. Founded on Family, Fashion and Philanthropy, we believe that our employees and customers are the heart and soul of our brand and that giving back is the truest form of success. Fashion meets innovation in the design of our two state-of-the-art facilities based in the heart of Austin, Texas, and overflows into the design of our growing retail environment across the country. Since Kendra began this company in 2002, she has lived by three core values: Family, Fashion, and Philanthropy. She created a brand and a culture that puts family first, constantly pushes the boundaries of fashion and design, and authentically values giving back and making a difference in the community. Those three pillars have become the foundation of our culture, and set us apart from the rest. From a local to a national scale, if someone comes to us with a cause they care about, we will always have something to give. Philanthropy has become an integral part of the Kendra Scott company, and the relationships we have built with our customers and our communities as a result are invaluable. We are proud to say that in 2016 alone, our company gave back over $3.5MM and donated more than 75,000 pieces of jewelry to 3,500 local and national organizations. Every Kendra Scott piece is intricately and artfully designed at our state of the art studio in Austin, Texas. Kendra and her team created the Design Lab of their dreams complete with casting, 3D printing and an extensive product and material library. The design studio offers a unique space to create, innovate and be inspired.
How does a single store in Omaha, Nebraska, become one of the largest jewelry stores in the nation? By never forgetting our history. It began 150 years ago, when Louis Borsheim had a vision to help others celebrate special occasions with fine jewelry, watches and gifts. In 1947, Louis Friedman bought the business and operated it with his son Ike. While Louis and Ike Friedman kept the Borsheims name, they ushered in a new era of success for the jewelry store. Ike, a dynamic businessman, developed the business philosophy that still guides our company today: offer an extensive inventory and exceptional customer service at the most competitive prices. It was an approach that worked, leading Borsheims to outgrow our downtown facility and move to the anchor position in Regency Court mall in 1986. In 1989, renowned investor Warren Buffett purchased a majority stake of Borsheims, making it part of his famous holding company, Berkshire Hathaway. Borsheims continues to grow today under the leadership of President and CEO Karen Goracke. Our location in Omaha`s Regency district is more than 62,500 square feet and includes private viewing spaces, large watch department, gift gallery, full-service jewelry repair and design shop, and an expansive jewelry showroom that is unlike any other in the country. Mission Statement: We are privileged to share in the special moments of our customers` lives. We will treat each opportunity with the respect and importance it deserves by providing exceptional customer service. Standards of Performance: Respect • Customer Orientation • Support Initiative • Team Player • Credibility
