Where it all started
Beach Camera’s journey began over 40 years ago on a humble boardwalk in Old Orchard Beach, Maine, where our grandfather - arriving in America with nothing - opened a small shop selling cameras and t-shirts to passing tourists. Joined by his two sons, he worked tirelessly to serve every customer with warmth and integrity.
Green Brook, NJ
As word spread and demand grew, the family moved the business to Green Brook, New Jersey, transforming it into a thriving retail store that served millions.
The launch of BeachCamera.com
Always looking to innovate, our family launched BeachCamera.com - one of the first mail-order electronics businesses in the country and among the earliest e-commerce sites to feature an “Add to Cart” button.
From dedication, to global recognition
While many retailers flocked exclusively to larger online marketplaces, we remained committed to growing our own platform. Over time, our dedication and customer-first mindset earned recognition from industry giants like Walmart, and we now serve hundreds of millions of customers worldwide, partnering with the most influential brands today.
Despite our dramatic growth, our core mission remains the same:
“To serve our customers, create positive experiences, and remain customer-obsessed
in everything we do.”
We strive every day to uphold the same values our grandfather instilled in us on that boardwalk in Maine.
