Shailen Mehta, Jignesh Mehta and Hitesh Mehta at the conclave
Global solitaire jewellery brand Divine Solitaires and eJOHRI,
India’s first online jewellery marketplace, together hosted
a soiree called the ‘Pathbreakers Conclave 2019’ at
The Westin, Mumbai. The event which had a sprinkling of both
business and entertainment was attended by 200 plus associate
jewellers from across the country.
The conclave aimed at bringing together members of the
jewellery industry, expressing gratitude for their support and
fostering a community feeling. The session also highlighted the
milestones achieved by Divine Solitaires and eJOHRI and their
industry-first initiatives. The conclave also unravelled new plans
and projections both the brands have for their partner jewellers.
The event placed special emphasis on the importance of
disruption and innovation. Dr Arokiaswamy Velumani, Founder,
Chairman and Managing Director, Thyrocare, was the keynote
speaker at the event. He discussed the need for organised
business and transparency in an industry that is still dealing
with the lack of organisation. He also spoke about the need for
disruption in today’s businesses. According to him, the power to
think differently is the first step in the process of disruption.
Jignesh Mehta, Founder and Managing Director, Divine Solitaires,
said “The customer preferences are changing and brands need to
stand out in the diamond industry. We are launching new solitaire
jewellery collections that resonate with the style quotient of the
new-age consumers. The company has expanded over the years.
Reaching out to newer domestic and global markets is the key to
growing at a rapid pace. We have also launched new campaigns
in print and cinemas to create a robust marketing ecosystem that
will be complemented with our new and modular VM and in-store
setup.”
“eJOHRI has proven that e-commerce is the future of fine
jewellery in India. It is O2O or the Online to Offline and Offline to
Online connect that is leading the way. Both support each other
to create a successful brand. eJOHRI has made a niche for itself
by giving jewellers their own online space to grow their brands.
Last month, we celebrated a very commendable achievement
of collaborating with 100 of the most renowned jewellers
nationwide. Our platform is unique and scalable. It is designed
to add tremendous value to the business of our valued partner
jewellers,” said Shailen Mehta, Founder & CEO, eJOHRI.
