Jewellery World Awards Grants Jury’s Special Recognition to Hari Krishna Exports for Environmental Stewardship

Commitment to Sustainability in a Changing World

As the world faces the growing impacts of climate change, the need for sustainable practices has become more urgent than ever. Extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and biodiversity loss continue to affect communities worldwide.

Amid these global challenges, Hari Krishna Exports (HK) stands as a symbol of responsibility and action. Even in the competitive diamond manufacturing industry, the company shows that environmental care can remain central to long-term success.

International Recognition for Environmental Stewardship

Once again, our sustainability efforts have received international recognition. Recently, we earned the Jury’s Special Recognition for Environmental Stewardship at the prestigious
Jewellery World Awards.

This recognition highlights our continued commitment to protecting the planet. It also reflects our efforts to create a positive impact across communities worldwide.

Mission River and Mission 102030

At the core of our sustainability journey are two focused initiatives: Mission River and Mission 102030. These programmes move beyond ambition and deliver measurable results.

To date, we have planted more than 3.2 million trees. In addition, our efforts have helped conserve over 30 billion litres of water, with progress continuing every year.

Our work goes beyond tree planting and water conservation. We have rejuvenated rivers, developed lakes, and strengthened a culture of sustainability within the organisation.

Through initiatives such as Jal Utsav, a water conservation festival, we encouraged thousands of people to participate. As a result, awareness and collective responsibility have grown steadily.

Community Engagement and Environmental Impact

One of the strongest aspects of our environmental efforts is community involvement. By transforming barren land into green spaces, we support both nature and local communities.

By engaging employees and customers in tree-planting activities, we build a shared sense of ownership. This approach encourages long-term responsibility for environmental protection.

As climate challenges continue, HK offers a clear example. Sustainability is not a passing trend but a lasting necessity for future generations.

Leadership Recognition and Lasting Vision

While second-generation leaders received recognition at JWA in Hong Kong, the founder and chairman of Hari Krishna Exports also earned special honour.

The Honourable Governor of Maharashtra, Shri C. P. Radhakrishnan, conferred an honorary doctorate of science upon him at the 18th convocation ceremony of PIMS Deemed University in Shirdi.

Reflecting on the honour, Shri Savjibhai Dholakia shared that true success lies in the prosperity created for society. The lakes built through these initiatives, he noted, will continue to support villages for generations.
