Rich in history and expertise, The Robbins Company was established in 1892 by Charles Robbins, a prominent jeweler in Attleboro, Massachusetts. In a shed near his home, he produced his first piece of jewelry, a campaign button to promote Benjamin Harrison for President.

The Tharpe Company was founded in 1981 by John Tharpe, along with a small team of experienced employee recognition professionals. They believed that a new approach was needed to meet the changing recognition needs of corporate America.

In 2007, the Robbins Company merged with the Tharpe Company to form TharpeRobbins.
