Brian Leclerc is Managing Partner and Diamond/Gemstone Buyer at International Diamond Center (IDC), where he provides executive leadership in strategic planning, global sourcing, operational oversight, and long-term organizational growth. With extensive expertise in diamond procurement and market analysis, he plays a central role in maintaining the company’s reputation for excellence, integrity, and customer trust.
IDC is known for selling diamonds, gemstones, fine jewelry, and luxury timepieces directly to consumers, combining retail and wholesale expertise.
IDC was founded by Brian’s father, Keith Leclerc, after decades of experience in the diamond and jewelry industry; the business has grown from a single showroom into a multi-location enterprise; including 10 stores in Florida and one in Savannah, GA. For over 15 years, Brian worked alongside his dad learning the business and absorbing his father’s knowledge and negotiating tactics while incorporating his own flair.
Growing up around the family business, Brian did not initially pursue a career in jewelry. He was a standout baseball player and played collegiate baseball at the University of Florida. Brian graduated from UF with a Bachelor’s degree in Anthropology.
After college, he played two seasons in the Chicago Cubs organization before a concussion ended his athletic career. Brian then returned to Florida and began learning the family business from the ground up, starting with buying events and hands-on training.
One notable area of his influence has been expanding IDC’s presence in luxury watches, now a significant part of the company’s offerings across its showrooms.
Brian had the privilege of working closely alongside his late father, Keith Leclerc, whose entrepreneurial vision and commitment to ethical business practices established International Diamond Center as a trusted leader in the jewelry industry. Through that mentorship, Brian developed a deep appreciation for principled leadership, community engagement, and responsible growth.
Today, Brian is committed not only to advancing the company’s strategic objectives but also to strengthening the communities it serves. He believes effective board leadership requires transparency, stewardship, and a long-term perspective — balancing fiscal responsibility with mission-driven impact. He continues to honor his father’s legacy by upholding a culture rooted in integrity, service, and enduring relationships.
