Bullion Trader in Hatton Garden Jewellers

Baird & Co. has traded in bullion since 1967, which puts it past the half-century mark. It is a family-owned, independent firm, founded by the late Tony Baird, and it has held on to that family character while growing into one of the UK's full-service bullion merchants. The team is experienced and has built an international name for straight dealing. The company is also the largest gold refinery in the UK, and it buys precious metal waste. Prices are competitive, settlement is quick, and advance payments are available. For an individual buying gold or a business clearing precious metal waste, Baird & Co. is set up to handle it.

Tavex Bullion is the UK arm of the Tavex Group, which started in Estonia in 1991 and grew across Northern and Eastern Europe. The company has traded in the UK since 2018, and in 2025 it opened a dedicated office in Hatton Garden. The counter is set up for walk-ins, while the website lists stock and live prices for click and collect. Services cover investment coins and bars, live pricing, buybacks, vault-to-desk ordering and the identity checks that keep transactions compliant. Staff explain purity, spreads, delivery and storage, so first-time buyers can get their bearings and experienced investors can move quickly. Supply comes direct from LBMA-accredited refiners, and the wider Tavex network operates in over a dozen countries across precious metals and currency exchange. Sellers receive tested, itemised assessments; buyers see clear product data on weight, fineness and origin. Stated security and anti-fraud processes cover safe postage and strict ID controls on both sides of the trade.
