History[edit]
VGL was founded as Vaibhav Enterprises in 1980.[1] It was later incorporated as Vaibhav Gems Limited, in 1989 at Jaipur, India. The company became Vaibhav Global Limited in 1994 and went public in 1996-97. VGL continued expanding its manufacturing and retail capabilities and in 2005-06 acquired STS Group of companies.[1][5]
During the recession of 2008-09, the purchasing power of US consumers dropped significantly and VGL had to rework its strategy. The company brought the average price of its products down to $18 - $20 from $100 per piece in 2010 thereby, successfully transitioning from store-based jewelry business to discount retail business through web and TV channels.[4]
It has electronic retail units: Shop LC formerly Liquidation Channel[9] in the US & Canada and The Jewellery Channel (TJC) in UK & Ireland.[3][4] These are wholly owned TV channels as well as e-commerce platforms. The combined reach of these two TV channels is about 123 million households.[5][10]
