BUSINESS

 

Business & Operations:

 

Vishal Diamonds Inc. is a private company located in Los Angeles, California. Vishal Diamonds Inc's line of business is wholesaler of precious stones and jewelry.

 

 

Industry Overview:

 

The US jewelry industry generates annual revenues of about $25 billion from 30,000 specialty stores. Large companies include Zale, Tiffany, and Sterling Jewelers. The industry is fragmented: the top 50 jewelry chains hold less than half of the market.

 

Jewelry sales depend partly on consumer income. Small jewelers can effectively compete with large chains because price isn't the main factor determining sales.

 

Profitability depends on merchandising and effective marketing. Average industry revenue per worker is about $160,000.

 

Jewelry is also sold in department and discount stores, and by mass merchants. Because regular gross margins are very high, often 50 percent, mass merchants have been able to cut prices and take market share. Wal-Mart is the largest jewelry retailer in the US.
