Borsheims

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

Coach

Coach was founded in 1941 as a family-run workshop. In a Manhattan loft, six artisans handcrafted a collection of leather goods using skills handed down from generation to generation.

Coach's exceptional workforce remains committed to carefully upholding the principles of quality and integrity that define the company. We attribute the prominence of the Coach brand to the unique combination of our original American attitude and design, our heritage of fine leather goods and custom fabrics, our superior product quality and durability, and our commitment to customer service.

Fendi Americas

Leader in the luxury industry for over 85 years, Fendi began its legendary story in 1925, when Edoardo Fendi and Adele Casagrande opened a leather goods boutique with a small fur workshop in the back. Nearly a century later, the innovative leather and fur craftsmanship that has always distinguished Fendi lives on. Constantly inspired by the magic of Rome, the House of Fendi has thrived on its enviable heritage becoming a unique and coveted icon of luxury. Over the years, the Fendi legacy has reached new levels of expansion and success thanks to the bold stylistic vision of the 5 Fendi sisters, followed by the creative genius of Karl Lagerfeld and Silvia Venturini Fendi, who revolutionized and reinterpreted Fendi’s excellence. From the iconic Baguette and Peekaboo bags, to the avant-garde ready-to-wear collections and outstanding furs, Fendi’s collections embody a daring creativity that have crowned the Maison as a true and refined symbol of glamour, expertise and experimentation. Part of the LVMH Group since 2001, Fendi is now active in all creative worlds and continues its longstanding relationship with the world of cinema and art and design, which have deeply marked its history. Fueled by an ambitious retail plan of new openings, Fendi currently boasts 200 stores worldwide with future plans to expand in all markets.
