Jamil Jewelry has been a trusted name in East Orange since 1990, blending family tradition with modern design. From custom gold nameplates to fine repairs and watch work, their shop at 540 B William Street is built on craftsmanship, patience, and personal service. Owner Jamil Baksh carries on a legacy passed down from his father, turning ideas into timeless pieces that reflect each customer’s story. More than a jewelry store, it’s a neighborhood fixture where quality and care come first.

"Jamil Jewelry is in the Urban Enterprise Zone and I was advised to look into the benefits for my customers and business by being certified. I signed up for the Professional Development Workshop Series (Cohort 2) and learned about networking, advertising strategies using social media and basic customer satisfaction and lots more. I must say Ms. Anna Banks made our success her personal passion.

Now that I am certified my customers are enjoying the reduced sales tax and Jamil Jewelry are beginning to benefit from all the perks of being in the UEZ. No regrets.

Thank you Mark Cheatam, Anna Banks and all the speakers who shared their knowledge, and of course, the City of East Orange, Mayor Ted Green for taking interest in the success of the business community."
