In this riveting episode, we delve into the captivating history of Gintani, a powerhouse of performance in the heart of Los Angeles. Led by the enigmatic Alex Merin, also known as Alex Gintani, this aftermarket marvel traces its roots back to the bustling streets of Tarzana, California, where Alex was born in 1984. Hailing from an Armenian background, his family's origins stretch to Istanbul, Turkey, a rich tapestry of heritage that adds depth to the Gintani legacy.
The narrative unfolds with Alex's grandfather, a luminary jeweler renowned for crafting exquisite R Coco bracelets that captivated the masses. Transitioning through generations, Alex's father ventured into the jewelry realm, adorning luminaries like Sylvester Stallone and Dolly Parton with resplendent pieces for Red Carpet Events. This familial flair for elegance culminated in the establishment of Sierra Jewelry, a beacon of sophistication for over 30 years, showcasing the family's prowess in design and craftsmanship.

Venturing further, Alex offers a glimpse into the architectural splendor of the Bullocks building, a cornerstone of his family's foray into real estate, symbolizing their indomitable spirit and entrepreneurial acumen.
