D Harris Nadar (1910-1975) was a South Indian entrepreneur and pioneer in gold trading. He was born in the year 1910.[1]
History[edit]
Nadar started a jewellery business, with a very small investment, in 1940, in his native village of Palliyadi (25 km from Nagercoil, Travancore, British India). He set out to create and sell custom-made gold ornaments and defined that as the business’ core objective.
His passion for his trade skill earned him a highly respectable name in the market and among its elites i.e. Tamil Nadu and Kerala. The jewels he created became famous for their quality, because of the temple goldsmith's he had and the great demand for his jewels led to the opening of the first retail showroom in Palliyadi and Nagercoil.
The showroom’s customer base kept growing even after his time in his native place of Palliyadi. The Nagercoil showroom was created to deliver a great shopping ambience to customers as well as to showcase the brand’s extremely wide range of designs with respect to the Indian market demand. After his success in his native soil he started exporting gold ornaments to Temples and Indian cities like Madras, Bombay and even as far as to British-Colonial Burma.
Later years[edit]
His success and innovation inspired prominent individuals and even brought many Chief Ministers of various states like Chakravarti Rajagopalachari, K. Kamaraj, E. M. S. Namboodiripad to him.
