Jon Cavuoto is the Founder, President, and Chief Executive Officer of First National Bullion Inc., a leading precious metals brokerage firm and one of America's trusted sources for gold, silver, platinum, and palladium bullion coins and bars. Since founding the company in 2006, Jon has grown it into a national operation headquartered in San Diego, California, with brick-and-mortar retail locations in Del Mar and Carlsbad (CA), as well as Scottsdale and Show Low (AZ). The firm also offers robust e-commerce, precious metals IRAs (Roth, Traditional, and Self-Directed 401(k)s), secure storage through Brinks and other fully insured global depositories, fast insured delivery, and numismatic collectibles.
Under Jon's leadership, First National Bullion has facilitated over $4 Billion in customer transactions, maintaining an A+ accreditation with the Better Business Bureau and a commitment to competitive pricing, transparency, and investor education.
Jon's expertise in precious metals is rooted in his early career as a commodities trading advisor starting in the late 1990s, with experience in oil futures, options, and Forex markets. This background fueled his vision to establish a dealership focused on empowering investors with physical assets for wealth preservation, portfolio diversification, and protection against economic uncertainty, principles inspired by sound money traditions and free-market economics.
As CEO, Jon drives the company's strategic growth, overseeing the blend of physical retail presence, secure online platforms, and client-centric services that distinguish First National Bullion from online-only competitors. His hands-on, ethical approach prioritizes trust and long-term relationships in an industry where reliability is paramount.
Based in San Diego County, California, Jon holds a degree from San Diego State University and brings decades of commodity trading and financial markets experience to guiding the firm.
