Shree Ramkrishna Exports (SRK), a Surat-based natural diamond manufacturer and exporter, announced its membership in the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC). This voluntary initiative enables companies all over the world to adopt and implement sustainable socially responsible practices.
The company said joining the UNGC marks a significant milestone, underscoring its commitment to the highest standards of social responsibility within the diamond and jewellery industry.
Recently, SRK achieved net zero emissions at its flagship facilities, SRK House and SRK Empire, making it the first company in the world to achieve the Global Network for Zero’s (GNFZ’s) net zero certification for existing buildings. This goal was originally targeted for 2030.
Dr. Nirav Mandir, Chief Human Capital & Sustainability Officer at SRK, commented, “SRK is deeply committed to integrating sustainability into our core business strategy and to not only setting an example for the rest of the industry but to bringing others along with us. We are eager to collaborate with global corporations to share best practices and foster sustainable business models that benefit all stakeholders. Engaging with the UNGC and its partners will equip us with valuable tools and insights to further embed sustainability into our operations.”
