RAPAPORT... Mahiar Borhanjoo is set to leave Venus Jewel International
to become CEO of the DFL Group, the company behind a new online
polished-diamond hub.
Borhanjoo has been managing director of India-based Venus Jewel, a
leading polished manufacturer and supplier, since 2015, overseeing a
transformation of the company’s brand and online platform, DFL said Friday.
He
previously served six years as executive director of sales and sightholder
services at the Diamond Trading Company (DTC), the forerunner of De Beers’
Global Sightholder Sales division. While at De Beers, he supervised the
transfer of DTC’s operations from London to Gaborone, Botswana, in 2013.
DFL launched UNI.Diamonds, an online diamond-trading
platform, in October, vowing to offer online sales, financing and other
services to polished suppliers and buyers. Borhanjoo will assume the new role
on June 17, the company added.
“Mahiar is an exceptional business leader who has earned
tremendous success throughout his career,” said Gil Melamed, a cofounder and board
member at DFL. “He has led companies through transformative and progressive
change, balancing the age-old legacy of diamonds with cutting-edge technology.”
