Angus & Coote is an Australian jewellery chain founded in Sydney, Australia in 1895 and listed on the ASX in 1952. The retailer claims to be a leader in Australia for high quality jewellery, with its 300 stores having a 20% market share as of early 2007.
In March 2007, James Pascoe Group successfully completed a $A76m ($NZ87m) takeover bid the very successful family owners the coote family jewellery group, including brands Amies in Queensland, Dunklings in Victoria and Edments in South Australia and Western Australia (all completely rebranded to Angus & Coote after November 2008) and Goldmark. The Goldmark and Edments brands were part of Prouds The Jewellers, with Angus & Coote acquiring them in 1996 when JPG purchased the main Prouds brand. At the time of the purchase, David Norman suggested one or more of newly acquired Angus & Coote brands could be launched in New Zealand. Goldmark is now included as a store-within-a-store at kiosks in selected Farmers stores.
