About Us
Oakland Puzzle Company is a community-centered and mission-driven jigsaw puzzle manufacturer crafting puzzles in a small factory in the Eastlake neighborhood of Oakland. We partner with local artists and organizations to raise funds and promote their work. We focus on high-quality puzzles, a local supply chain, and supporting other small, ethical businesses.
We launched in May of 2023 and in our first six months, we raised over $10,000 for artists and organizations. As of December 2024, we have raised over $25,000.
Our History
Dave and DeAnna Tibbs are multi-generational Bay Area residents who love Oakland. They worked for several years researching and planning the production of jigsaw puzzles in an effort to create the highest quality puzzles and an ethical and sustainable business.
We are grateful for the start-up support provided by Kevin Poorman, Larry Tessler, and Community Printers.
