(PRESS RELEASE) In these unprecedented times of COVID-19 and nationwide lockdown, Shree Ramkrishna Exports Pvt Ltd (SRK), one of the biggest diamond crafting & exporting companies from Surat, took to the forefront in supporting the migrant families by providing them food grains, rotis (Indian breads) and grocery kits. SRK, whose diamond crafting facilities are situated in Surat, extended the helping hand to Surat Municipal Corporation (SMC) and Chhayado Foundation, which is a non-profit organization providing free meals to underprivileged communities in Surat city.

SRK Group pledged and served over 300,000 rotis, distributed more than 55,000 kgs of food grains and over 120 grocery kits to marginalized and vulnerable communities across the Surat city during these challenging times.

Apart from this, the company, well-known for its contributions to society, also helped arrange meals for the 400-500 staff members of Surat Municipal Corporation on a daily basis.

“These efforts were taken to ensure that amidst this pandemic, all get their daily meals and not be worried about food … because Surat has helped craft our lives and it’s our duty to give back to the city in such times of need. We are working on the same and looking forward to more ways in extending our support to the government and SMC’s efforts,” said a company warrior who was on-field to make this happen from SRK.

You Wouldn’t Cut Your Own Hair. Why Run Your Own Retirement Sale?

After being in business for over a quarter of a century, Wayne Reid, owner of Wayne Jewelers in Wayne, Pennsylvania, decided it was time for a little “me time.” He says, “I’ve reached a point in my life where it’s time to slow down, enjoy a lot of things outside of the jewelry industry. It just seemed to be the right time.” He chose Wilkerson to handle his retirement sale because of their reputation and results. With financial goals exceeded, Reid says he made the right choice selecting Wilkerson to handle the sale. “They made every effort to push our jewelry to the forefront of the showcases,” he says, lauding Wilkerson for their finesse and expertise. Would he recommend them to other jewelers who want to make room for new merchandise, expand their business or like him, decide to call it a day? Absolutely he says, equating trying to do this kind of sale with cutting your own hair. “The results are going to happen but not as well as if you have a professional like Wilkerson do the job for you.”
