Jewelry insurance provider Jewelers Mutual Group has announced its expansion with a new office in Dallas. This location, the first geographic expansion for the company, is dedicated to further developing services and technology platforms to better meet its customers’ growing needs.

“Adding a Dallas location and leveraging its advanced tech talent allows Jewelers Mutual to take jewelry protection to the next level,” said Adam Gerety, vice president of platform operations, in a statement. “As generations grow up and consumers’ needs for jewelry protection and security evolve, it’s important for us to anticipate the best way to serve our expanding customer base and continue innovating our products and services.”

The new office is located in Mockingbird Station, an area of the city surrounded by restaurants and shops, with easy access to the Dallas Area Rapid Transit Light Rail (DART), and near popular biking and walking path University Crossing Trail. “We like to call ourselves a 107-year-old company with a start-up mentality,” said Gerety. “With a creative, open-concept office environment located in a hub of activity, our employees are inspired to think outside of the box without corporate constraints.”
