Your Guide to Wholesale Jewelry in Montreal

Montreal has quickly become one of Canada’s best-kept secrets for high-quality, locally made wholesale jewelry. Whether you're a boutique owner, an e-commerce retailer, or just getting started in the jewelry business, sourcing from Montreal gives you access to exceptional craftsmanship, reliable suppliers, and competitive pricing, without crossing borders.

At Gaia, we often receive questions from retailers across Canada and the U.S. who are exploring Montreal as a sourcing hub. Here, we answer the most common ones to help you make informed decisions.

 

1. Why should I source wholesale jewelry from Montreal instead of overseas?

Montreal suppliers like Gaia offer several key advantages:

  • Faster shipping times within Canada and North America

Plus, you can expect higher quality control and more personalized service, especially for boutique businesses.

Your designs stay exclusive to you, and we guide you through every step.
