Indian jewelry retailer Malabar Group recently inaugurated its new global headquarters, a completely nature-friendly yet ultra-modern facility in Kuttikkattoor, Kozhikode, India.
The headquarters of the diversified Malabar Group will house all its subsidiaries including the flagship brand, Malabar Gold and Diamonds. It has been built at the Montana Estates, a 150-acre serene township, situated at 800 feet above the sea level.
The headquarters will house research facilities and training centers.
E. P. Jayarajan, Kerala minister for industries and sports, formally inaugurated the headquarters in the presence of a host of dignitaries. T. P. Ramakrishnan, Kerala minister for labor and excise, released a corporate video of the Malabar Group. A. K. Saseendran, Kerala minister for transport, announced “Golden Girl,” an initiative to promote girl talent.
“This is one success that Keralites should be proud of,” Jayarajan said
Malabar Group Chairman M. P. Ahammed said: “This is the result of the collective effort of the investors, consumers and the employees. A brand is built only with the support and trust of the consumer,” he said.
The Montana Estate Integrated Township, being built by Malabar Developers, is a nature-friendly human habitat with just 20 percent of the area covering buildings while the remaining lush green area would be left for the nature’s bounty.
