The jewellery group, which Alukkas set up with scarce capital in Abu Dhabi and Dubai in the 1980s, had several challenges before it had its present multinational reach. The book not only traces his phenomenal entrepreneurial story, but also provides rare insights into an industry that was fragmented and unorganised.
When Kajol asked the eminent jeweller what readers can take away from the book and his advice for entrepreneurs. Alukkas revealed that passion and hardwork were vital to succeed in a business and how he beat odds to build 160 showrooms in 11 countries.
“I learnt a lot of things from the Dubai experience as well as from my employees. Anybody can have a success story like mine if you have the passion. The book is an effort to share my life’s journey so that others can learn from it. You will understand the hardwork and pain that has gone into building my business. Future generations can learn business tricks and understand challenges through it. So happy reading and being inspired”, Joy Alukkas added.
The book, written in collaboration with Thomas Scaria and Nidhi Jain, is available in English, Arabic and Malayalam.
