History
Established in 1980.
Founded in 1980 by Mexican immigrant Don Francisco, Monte de Piedad has been serving San Diego County’s residents for over 35 years. Don Francisco established a unique pawn company which focuses specifically on the customer’s needs. In 1980, this high level of service in a pawn shop was simply unheard of. He provided very high loan amounts and excellent service, and as a result, gained a loyal following with customers.
In October of 2005, Monte de Piedad opened its second location at 4587 University ave. Due to tremendous success and a crowd following, Monte de Piedad opened an additional 11 pawn stores during the following nine years.
Today, Monte de Piedad is one of the largest family-owned Pawn Shops in California. Every day, we do our best to serve you, our customer. Our customers mean everything to us. We will always do everything in our power to serve you and to provide you with the best pawn services that make you happy and satisfy your requirements.
