Heller Jewelers Celebrates 30 Years with Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony and Community Mixer

Heller Jewelers, a family-owned fine jewelry and luxury timepiece retailer at City Center Bishop Ranch, celebrated its 30th anniversary with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony on August 28, 2026, in partnership with the San Ramon Chamber of Commerce. The event, held from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m., brought together local leaders, elected officials' representatives, and business community members to honor the store's three-decade legacy in San Ramon.

The ceremony took place in front of the store, where Danielle Cook, President and CEO of the San Ramon Chamber of Commerce, opened the program and introduced Chamber leadership and visiting dignitaries. Terry Koehne, Chairman of the Chamber's Board of Directors, and Peter Niles, representing the Chamber Ambassadors, offered remarks, followed by the presentation of a Chamber plaque commemorating the milestone.

Representatives from the offices of Senator Tim Grayson and Assemblymember Rebecca Bauer-Kahan also attended and spoke on behalf of their respective offices, underscoring the occasion's significance to the broader San Ramon community. Their presence highlighted the store's importance not just as a business but as a community cornerstone.

Brandon Heller spoke on behalf of the store, reflecting on the family's three decades of serving San Ramon and the community relationships built along the way. "Thirty years ago, my parents opened our doors with a simple goal: to help celebrate life's special moments through fine jewelry and luxury timepieces. To stand here today, surrounded by the community that made that possible, is something we don't take for granted," he said.

Following the ceremony, guests were invited to join a networking mixer and celebration, fostering connections among local businesses and community members. The event served as a testament to Heller Jewelers' enduring presence and its commitment to personalized client service rooted in three decades of local relationships.

The ribbon-cutting kicks off a season of 30th-anniversary programming for Heller Jewelers, including additional community and client events planned for later this year. This celebration comes at a time when small, family-owned businesses face significant challenges, making the milestone particularly noteworthy. Heller Jewelers' ability to thrive for 30 years underscores its resilience and the strong bonds it has forged with the San Ramon community.

The store, founded by Scott and Catherine Heller, is now home to a second generation of the Heller family in the business. Its mission is making lasting memories for life's special moments with fine jewelry and luxury timepieces, offering bridal, fine jewelry, and an authorized selection of luxury watch brands. The anniversary celebration not only marked a significant business achievement but also reaffirmed the importance of local businesses in maintaining community character and economic vitality.

As Heller Jewelers looks to the future, its 30th anniversary serves as a reminder of the value of long-term community investment. The event was a celebration of both past achievements and future aspirations, with the company poised to continue its legacy of excellence in fine jewelry and luxury timepieces.
