Group Overview
FROM A SINGLE STORE IN A SMALL-TOWN TO A CHAIN of stores with a global foot print is truly fascinating. It all started way back in the 18th century, the group gets its name from the late Purshottam Narayan Gadgil, a doyen of the family and the chief architect who captured the hearts and imagination of the people with his ethics and his jewellery. In the state of Maharashtra, India the name Gadgil has become synonymous with purity and generations of jewellery buyers have bestowed their immense trust and goodwill in P N Gadgil Jewellers. This rich legacy of fine craftsmanship and finer values earned over 175 years is the group's greatest treasure.FOR NEARLY TWO CENTURIES, OUR LIFE'S WORK HAS BEEN GOLD. We have discovered there's a lot of gold in this world, not in the mines, not in the bullion market, not in the shelves of our shops, but there's gold in the arms of a loved one, on the dinner table with your family, in a boisterous laugh, in a sincere compliment, in the hearts of a cherished patron, in that smile when you know you made someone happy and when you find this gold you feel richer than the richest man on earth. Welcome to our lives.IF THERE'S ONE SIMPLE ADAGE THAT DESCRIBES THE P N Gadgil Jewellers Group; it is purity of thoughts and deeds. Since 1832, purity has been the guiding philosophy in every aspect of our business - from the quality of raw materials to finished designs and from business ethics to honest transactions with customers. So much so, that in the city of Pune and around Maharashtra the Gadgil name has become synonymous with purity.AROUND THE WORLD, VERY FEW BUSINESSES HAVE THE RARE distinction of being run by the same family for over 175 years - PNG Jewellers is one of them. Meet the man who made it possible - Anant Ganesh Gadgil, the patriarch of the Gadgil clan and a master jeweller has not only held the flock together but also instilled in the enterprise the values of ethics, transparency and honesty. A simple and meticulous man who has won many a battles in life and in business with a simple philosophy, pure thoughts give birth to pure deeds. Fondly and respectfully known as Dajikaka (meaning eldest uncle), he has single-handedly transformed a small jewellery store into a highly-respected, admired and loved store. At 97, he inspires the group with his childlike enthusiasmEVERY BUSINESS IS SHAPED BY THE EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE of leaders with a vision. P N Gadgil Jewellers has been fortunate to have been blessed two of them in the family. Parag Gadgil and Saurabh Gadgil. Parag Kaka (Uncle) as he is fondly called has been a fount of knowledge and inspiration on the shop floor. An engineer by profession he has steered the retail ship for over three decades. THE SIXTH GENERATION OF THE GADGIL CLAN, walks the tight rope of tradition and modernity. As the man at helm, he passionately safeguards the rich heritage and values he has bequeathed while he readies to test the global waters. A man of many interests, he drives the group with his endless energy and astute acumen. He's equally excited about playing cricket with his sons on Sundays and eating his favorite afternoon snack, the Puneri misal.Some of the most-consecrated idols in iconic temples around India have adorned a Gadgil creation. Amongst their patrons have been the members of the Royal Family of Sangli. Not to forget the billions of cherished patrons around Maharashtra who have showered their love and affection on P N Gadgil Jewellers. Since 1832, today, the group has a chain of stores in the metropolis of Pune. On festive occasions (which are many in India), one could mistake a P N Gadgil Jeweller store for a supermarket - a glowing testimony to their fine craftsmanship and ethos. The first store in Sunnyvale brings to California a glorious tradition and represents the coming of age of P N Gadgil Jewellers.
