Pandora’s history
Pandora was founded in 1982 by Per Enevoldsen and Winnie Liljeborg when they opened a small jewelry shop in Copenhagen, Denmark.
It was originally called “Populair Smykker” which translates to “Popular Jewelry.”
“From the beginning, they often travelled to Thailand in search of jewelry for importing,” the Pandora website states. “As the demand for their products increased, their focus gradually shifted towards wholesale to clients in Denmark.”
Pandora is now available in more than 100 countries on six continents through more than 7,000 points of sale, including about 2,800 concept stores, the company’s website states.
