Who is Beaverbrooks owned by?
Established in 1919, with the opening of its first shop in Belfast, it is still a family-owned business, with direct descendants of the founders (the third and fourth generations of the Adlestone family) the present day custodians. We started in 1919 as a family business and we’re still owned by that same family. Only now, we have 1000+ people across our 85 UK-wide stores and Head Office in Lytham St. Annes. Each passionately helping create unforgettable customer memories.
What is the history of Beaverbrooks?
Our story began in 1919 when the three Adlestone brothers, Isaac, Harry and Maurice, moved to Belfast to pursue their dream of selling fine jewellery and gifts. Fast forward to today, we now have 85 stores nationwide and over 1,200 colleagues. And, Isaac’s grandson, Mark Adlestone, is our beloved Chairman. Third generation of our family-owned business, Mark Adlestone joined the company in 1979 and since then has worked his way up from Joint Managing Director and sole Managing Director, to becoming our beloved Chairman in 2012.
