Company Profile

NYUZ (pronounced news) is a Training and Consulting company for the jewellery industry.
Founded in January 2005 by Navin Sadarangani (link to Read My Journey) , it is evolving every day with a vision “To become the Preferred Jewellery Retail Service Provider”

At the start, the whole idea of Jewellery Retail Services was non-existent and hence NYUZ started by offering Training of Frontline Retail Sales Personnel as its only service and revenue generator. The mission stated then and still remains “To influence the quality of management and service in the domestic jewellery sector” through quality coaching.”

After 10 years of making news largely as a Training Provider to brands like TBZ, Khimji, Malabar Gold & Diamonds, Aisshpra, Gili, Nirvana, D’damas; Family Jewellers like Anmol, Hazoorilal Legacy, Shobha Asar, Harit Zaveri, Kalasha Fine Jewels, Varda Goenka, Mahesh Notandass; Trade Bodies like GJEPC, DTC, PGI; and International Jewellery Players like Rosy Blue, Oro, Kanz Jewels in Dubai, Mustafa Jewellery in Singapore, NYUZ took on its complete emergence.

Great associations have been built up with jewellery industry experienced Graphic Design Outfits,
Advertising Agencies, Architects, Website Development Companies, Packaging and Printing Vendors to allow for quick access in case a need exists. A lot of co-venture work/projects have also been carried out with The Times of India Group, Femina, DNA, NDTV Good Times, Zee TV, Balaji Telefilms and other media publications and houses even in the jewellery industry like The Retail Jeweller, The Indian Jeweller etc.

How does NYUZ Influence ?
Through the 4 C’s of Jewellery Retail Services.

Coaching

A much neglected area of Training in the Jewellery Industry is that of Frontline Sales Personnel in the Retail Sector.
Whether it is Product Knowledge, Company Background & Legacy, Buy Back Policies, Guarantees, Warranties,
Price Calculation, Trade and Market Knowledge, Repairs and Renewals, Operational Working, Changes in
Business Conditions, all of it has never been put across in clear context to the new recruit.
And hence the ladder starts and ends right there for most passionate jewellery sales executives.
