Enhanced profitability can no longer be dependent on increasing gold rates year after year. Often significant portion of the inventory is more than six months old. The consumer is changing, the market situation is changing and so is competition.  Proactive jewellers who will adapt their business practices will not only survive, but thrive and prosper.

This workshop will help owners/promoters, jewellery designers, senior managers of retail chains, manufacturers, sales staff and anyone who wants to gain profit from retailing. The workshop would be held in Hindi and English
