(Rapaport...February 21, 2006) The New York Diamond Dealers Club (DDC) will mark its 75th anniversary by honoring three industry leaders with a lifetime achievement award.
DDC president Jacob Banda announced the recipients as: Shmuel Schnitzer, president of the World Federation of Diamond Bourses, Israel; Sergei Oulin, vice president of ALROSA, Russia; and Kaushik Mehta, chairman of Eurostar, Belgium.
Banda said, "The Diamond Dealers Club is especially pleased to bestow its highest honor on these outstanding leaders of our industry from key trading centers. Each honoree has contributed immeasurably to the success of the diamond business worldwide."
The DDC is itself expected to receive an achievement award for its 75th anniversary. The United States Department of Commerce is to award the club its Export Achievement Award and that recognition will be paid to long-time DDC members, Banda said.
The DDC’s 75th Anniversary Celebration will take place on Tuesday evening, May 16, at the Rainbow Room above New York City’s Rockefeller Center. For information about 75th Anniversary Celebration, please contact DDC managing director Martin Hochbaum at 212.790.8000.
