F. Hinds Sparkle With Retail Family Business Of The Year Award


Much loved jewellery brand F. Hinds has celebrated success at the Family Business Awards 2023, taking home the coveted Retail Family Business of the Year 2023 prize.


F. Hinds are a family run jewellers established in 1856 and have been independently family owned and run ever since. Their fantastic customer service and quality products have positioned the brand as Britain’s leading independent jeweller, with 115 stores and 13 Chapelle outlet stores in the UK and plans to expand further.


The firm has seen seven generations of family run the company since it’s opening, and today Andrew, David, Jeremy, Neil and Paul Hinds still work hard to ensure the success of their family’s outstanding reputation and dedication to their valued customers.


In addition, F. Hinds also centre their ethos around social responsibility, and the desire to support charities and causes including Children in Need, Disasters Emergency Committee and British Heart Foundation, for which over £50,000 has been raised through various campaigns run throughout stores.


Their prize of ‘Retail Family Business of the Year 2023’ is a prestigious award and featured a line-up of exceptional nominees based across the UK.


Paul Andrews, the CEO of Family Business United who host the awards, commented “Family firms are the backbone of the UK economy and contribute significantly in so many ways. Family firms deserve all the recognition they can get for all the good that they do in terms of employment, income generation and wealth creation, not forgetting their continued charitable endeavours and investment in the communities in which they operate.”


Paul continues, “These awards are now in their eleventh year and each year they have raised the profile of the sector, crowned some incredible winners and discovered some true family business gems along the way. Winners over the years have come from all corners of the UK, been large and small, multi-generational and starting out but above all they share their underlying values, purpose and desire to succeed as a family firm."


F. Hinds have celebrated their moment in the spotlight by showcasing their success across their social media platforms, adding another accolade to an already impressive line-up of triumphs.


Paul Hinds, Managing Director at F. Hinds commented “Being a family business is at the heart of our business's values. We are delighted that we have been recognised as leaders in our field by Family Business United, an organisation of which we are proud members. We also congratulate all the other winners, who are great examples of an underappreciated part of the UK economy.”
