Cartwright Jewelers Ltd. recently picked up some hardware from the Canadian Jewelry Group.

The New West business, which has been family owned and operated since opening in the Royal City in 1933, was named Western Canadian Retailer of the Year by the Canadian Jewelry Group, which consists of 121 stores across Canada. Owner Susan Cartwright Coates said it’s beneficial to have a forum where she can exchange ideas and information with her peers.

“The award was given at our annual AGM which is held in Toronto. The award is comprised of several factors, participation with the other members, support of our suppliers, attending the AGM, educational seminars and buying show,” she told the Record. “It is a great honour to be recognized within the jewellery industry, for what I do is truly a passion to me.”
