The retailer garnered the highest rating across the seven retail categories measured in the annual Consumer Friendliness Index, which also included electronics, hypermarkets, furniture, retail, coffee shops and automotive dealers. Firoz Merchant, the founder and chairman of Pure Gold Jewellers, said, "Consumer Friendliness Index is a great government initiative to improve customer satisfaction levels and raise consumer confidence in Dubai's retail offerings. It is an honor to receive the award. I strongly believe customers are the focal point of any business, and therefore providing great customer service is part of our business philosophy. The index is a reliable benchmark for retail and hospitality businesses to work toward achieving the highest degree of customer satisfaction. We will continuously strive towards improving our processes and services to ensure the best experience for our customers."
