Shrenuj & Co. to enter China and West Asia


by Jo Black

Shrenuj & Co, the diamond and jewellery firm, plans to enter the Chinese and West Asian jewellery retail market.

With a consolidated turnover of Rs 9.52 billion ($244 million), Shrenuj has retail presence in international markets such as the US, Hong Kong, France and Australia.

Pranava Bhargava, group general manager, marketing, said that the company will focus on India, China and West Asia, which are registering double-digit growth since the last 4-5 years. The net margins are also similar to those in Western countries with relatively low operating costs and investments in these markets.

The company will make its Chinese debut with Joliesse, a Hong Kong-based jewellery chain it acquired in 2003.

In the domestic market, Shrenuj will focus on branded jewellery retail through Diti, a low-end gold and platinum brand.

Unlike other branded players, Shrenuj is adopting the shop-in-shop concept to test the waters in the Indian jewellery retail. It aims to open 100 points of sales for Diti by March 2009.
