T S Kalyanaraman, Chairman and Managing Director, Kalyan Jewellers, said, “We are extremely delighted to welcome Anil Nair to Kalyan Jewellers. He brings to the table unmatched expertise in advertising and brand building, which will be critical to the company’s growth despite the challenges in the Covid-19 era. At Kalyan Jewellers, we aim to continue our successful journey and expand our footprint to cater to newer audiences.”

With the coronavirus outbreak, digital has fortified its position as the most convenient medium for companies to connect with its customers. Kalyan Jewellers has strategically realigned resources to support its digital-first strategy and build a distinctive brand identity. Earlier this year, the brand has rolled out digital campaigns on occasions such as Valentine’s Day, Gudi Padwa, Mother’s Day and the recently launched #MuhuratAtHome digital campaign.

Anil said, “Kalyan Jewellers is one of the most trusted brands in India today and has built a strong and extremely loyal customer base across the country. The hyper-local strategy of catering to the needs of the consumer with local preferences and tastes has been the success mantra of the brand, according to me. Their campaigns have always resonated with the masses, and played a key role in creating a unique brand voice. It’s a great honour to be on Kalyan’s board and I look forward to an exciting journey with Kalyan Jewellers.”

In addition to Anil, Kalyan Jewellers has elevated Sanjay Raghuraman to Chief Executive Officer from his earlier position as the Chief Operating Officer at the company. Salil Nair, who was previously the CEO of retail chain, Shoppers Stop, has also been appointed as a Non-Executive Director on the company’s board.
