K. Girdharlal International Ltd.

k. girdharlal, better known as k.g., was established in 1967 dominantly as diamond traders, with little resources used in diamond cutting and polishing. in the early 1990s, we shifted our focus to cutting and polishing diamonds in surat, becoming one of india's leading manufacturers in the industry. the business remains family run since its inception, with brothers and partners having global reach along the supply chain across the major diamond centres including surat, mumbai, hong kong and dubai. till date, our favourite statistic is having over 1,500 employees worldwide that share our passion in various steps along the supply chain, which are: ethical rough diamonds sourcing, optimal manufacturing, polished diamonds distribution, and jewellery crafting and distribution. our environmentally friendly efforts while designing our current surat factory in 2005 made us the first in the industry to achieve a platinum rating award from the indian green building council (igbc) in july, 2014
