This compliment by such an intelligent actor as Vidya Balan Kapoor speaks volumes about the credibility of Ranka Jewellers indeed.
The 7 stores of Ranka Jewellers in Pune represent a tradition of 134 years. Gulabchand Ranka laid its golden foundation 134 years ago that has today flourished into Ranka Jewellers, a brand known for purity and beautiful designs in Pune as well as Pimpri Chinchwad. From a small beginning of 20 sq.ft., it has today grown to an astounding 1,25,000 sq.ft. of showroom space. They were also the first to take the bold decision of not using other metal for making their jewellery, thereby preserving its purity.
In 1977, the credit for starting Pune's first air conditioned showroom goes to Ranka Jewellers as well. They also successfully opened a 2000 sq.ft. jewellery store on Laxmi Road, an area once known for its textile market only. The Laxmi road showroom received such a tremendous response that they started rapid store expansion for their customers.
A 4 storeyed 15,000 sq.ft. showroom on Karve Road in 1999, a wide 14,000 sq.ft. showroom in Chinchwad in 2007, a 4 storeyed 15,000 sq.ft. showroom in Hadapsar in 2010, and a 25,000 sq.ft. showroom on Sinhagad Road in 2011 are all results of the customers' tremendous response to Ranka Jewellers. These showrooms, that were built considering the growing Pune, stand tall and continue to be crowded as they function on the three pillars of their policy – purity, honesty and affection.
This happy celebration will continue till 9th October 2013, when the Pune-Satara Road showroom (8000 Sq. Ft.) in 2 floors will be inaugurated to give spectacularshopping experience for the people in and around Katraj, Bibwewadi, Padmavati & Sahakarnagar area on the occasion of Lalita Panchami.
