Company Summary
GemJoli is a me-commerce business that allows visitors to configure jewellery by: a) selecting the metal (silver, 9k gold, 18k gold, etc); b) picking their gemstones from a choice of 10 to 15; c) describing their imagination to secure designs submitted by a community of designers (contest model). Order- based production means there's no credit and no inventory. Orders are procured directly from India which translates into huge cost-advantage.
