"I can tell you for a fact that being a member of CBG has helped our business GROW, and GROW, and GROW. There are SO MANY REASONS why being a member of Continental Buying Group has helped our jewelry company grow. Being a member of CBG puts us on the same playing field as the BIG GUYS we competed with and the buying power they had. CBG was and is highly respected in our industry, and the prime vendors in our industry want to be vendors to all CBG members. So we benefit from CBG's buying power and reputation. It's the POWER OF ONE, and every CBG member is a part of that POWER OF ONE."

“We’ve proudly been a member of the Continental Buying Group for Decades. Over the years, CBG has proven time and again to be a invaluable partner - whether we need support from a vendor or insights from high volume retailers. The sense of community within CBG is unmatched; fellow members freely share what working (and what isn’t) helping us all stay ahead of the curve in a rapidly changing market.”

"It was my first trip to CBG and I found it to be very interesting. I think that our store will benefit most from the small networking group that went to dinner on Tuesday night, then met more formally on Wednesday. Everyone there was super nice and great to make contact with! I hope this program continues!"
