Kashi Jewelers has been in business in India since 1955. Established as a retailer by the late Shri Keshav Nath Kapoor, the company has flourished to become an integrated jewellery business involved in the import, manufacture, export and retail of jewellery. A key figure who has led the business to new heights is Shreyansh Kapoor, Vice-President of Kashi Jewellers. Under his leadership, Kashi Jewellers broke the traditions and stereotypes in the industry. “I have always believed in empowering women, and we were among the first jewellery companies to employ female staff in what used to be a male-dominated industry,” recalled Mr. Kapoor. He also pursued aggressive marketing strategies, revitalised the brand and made it contemporary. Kashi Jewellers was the first jewellery company to feature female models wearing jewellery in India’s print media. Believing that all good things should be offered at good prices, he established an Export Manufacturing Unit in Kolkata’s Special Economic Zone, paving the way for exports, manufacturing pricing, better customer service and improved craftsmanship to better cater to national and international clients. “We have always been known as a leader for setting standards in terms of purity and quality of products. We set benchmark for the entire jewellery industry, not only locally but nationwide, which in turn has put India on the world map”, said Mr. Kapoor. Kashi Jewellers has been serving its local and international clients for more than sixty years.

“I express my heartfelt gratitude to all our customers, well-wishers and our entire Kashi Team and congratulate them for their faith in us due to which Kashi Jewellers has been evolving in every aspect since the past 60 years and has become a worldwide renowned brand”, said Mr. Shreyansh Kapoor.
