RAPAPORT... HRD Antwerp will open a diamond-jewelry grading laboratory
in Dubai’s Almas Tower through a partnership with retailer Stargems Group.
The center, which will be HRD’s first such lab in the Middle
East, will be located within the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) Free
Zone, the gemological group said Wednesday.
HRD and Stargems signed a memorandum of understanding in
which the lab will grade the retailer’s entire jewelry inventory.
“Within the diamond industry, trust is key,” said Stargems chairman Shailesh
Javeri. “As a retailer, we want our customers to have
confidence in our products. By certifying our entire inventory with the highly
reputable HRD Antwerp brand, our customers can be assured about the
authenticity and quality of our jewelry.”
HRD plans to use the partnership to help it expand its Middle
East presence, it added.
