About the company

Mac-Ave and it’s parent company Jessi Group, Inc. was one of Rochester’s earliest Macintosh solutions providers. Founded in 1991, The Company was formed when our owner identified an increasing need for powerful computing solutions for the graphic arts industry. From there, we’ve grown to become Rochester’s leading provider of Apple products.

As Apple has grown, so have we. We decided not only to provide our customers with excellent computing solutions; we also decided to provide them with the best in wireless solutions, home entertainment solutions, and accessory solutions. Our store is very different than the average retail store. We are trying to become Rochester’s total solution with exceptional products.

As an Apple Specialist we can focus on retail sales, small business, or enterprise sales.  We fit into your daily routine, providing superior service before, during, and after the sale.

Either it be in-store, or on-site at your home or office, we are your partner in technology, a creative solutions provider, motivated to building a relationship, and making you part of our family.

We are a small business that loves solving problems and helping our clients get the most from their Macs.  We are committed to the Macintosh platform and have met or exceeded Apple’s highest level of sales and service authorizations.

About The Owner

Jacquie Frederick, Owner of Mac-Ave by Jessi Group, Inc. 

Jacquie born and raised in Rochester, NY, and graduated from Nazareth college with a degree in Business Management.

Right out of college, she worked at a few computer stores. However, when her second child Jessica was born, Jacquie was faced with making a decision between her new born who was born sick and required more time and care, and meeting her present employers expectations. A decision a lot of parents are unfortunately faced with; choosing between family or work. 

With the encouragement from customers to start her own company, Jacquie left her place of employment at the time, and “Jessi Group Inc.” was born.

In 1991, Jessi Group Inc. was one of 13 locally owned and Authorized Apple Value Added Resellers in Rochester NY. 

25 years later, now known as Mac-Ave by Jessi Group, Inc., we are the ONLY locally owned and operated Apple Authorized Reseller and Premium Service Provider, in Rochester! 

We have been recognized by Apple Corporate as one of their top sales, service, and training providers.

We work with technology from the basic home computer system, to corporate solutions for your business.
