Congress Jewelers to relocate to Bell Tower

By CONGRESS JEWELERS - | Nov 23, 2022

The Sanibel & Captiva Islands Chamber of Commerce reported that Congress Jewelers has signed a lease to relocate its headquarters to the Bell Tower in Fort Myers in the wake of Hurricane Ian.

Co-owners Scot and Melissa Congress shared that the storm devastated Sanibel and their store at the Periwinkle Place Shops. They plan to eventually be a part of the rebuild of the island and of their store.

“Our planned opening is for Dec. 2 inside Bell Tower Shops, Suite 165. This date is special to the islanders, as the first Friday in December is traditionally the annual Luminary Celebration,” Melissa Congress said. “While the storm has been a devastating experience for our team of 17, we are looking forward to reuniting and serving our clients and meeting many new friends within our community.”

In addition, Congress Jewelers has designed a special collection of pendants, including a Florida Strong, Sanibel Strong and Captiva Strong design. A portion of proceeds will benefit F.I.S.H. of Sanibel-Captiva and Sanibel-Captiva Recovery Fund of the Charitable Foundation of the Islands.

“These pendants are a promise to our community and to ourselves — to return stronger than we left it,” Scot Congress said.
