Malabar Group
Malabar Group was founded in 1993 by a team of enterprising entrepreneurs, led by the visionary genius of Mr. M P Ahammed when he explored beyond his immediate circle in the agri-corp industry to establish a jewelry trading company in a historical city called Kozhikode. Since then, keeping alive the golden spirit of the Brand, the Group has remained constant, in its successful forays nurtured by expertise, vision and guidance, into a formidable business conglomerate. The HQ (headquarters) of Malabar Group located in Kozhikode shines bright as a beacon of success for an empire built on Trust, Teamwork, and Goodwill.
The Malabar Group has over 280 showrooms across the world currently and the number of outlets is expected to triple to 750 within the next 5 years. The Malabar Group has been on an aggressive expansion drive since the year 2000 and more showrooms are expected to be opened in India, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and in the United States. The brand is strongly committed to India, the Gulf and Far East markets where it aims to develop a sustainable business development roadmap.
It took the company just 25 years to open 250 outlets across 10 countries of the world. Out of all the countries, India is where it has the highest number of outlets and the Indian market accounts for about a third of the company’s revenue.
Malabar Gold & Diamonds made its entry into the U.S market with an outlet in Chicago that was inaugurated by Neeta Bhushan- Counsel-General of India. This was the 250th outlet of the group.
Mr. MP Ahammed
Visionary and a solitaire, rolled into one.
They say when grit and determination rally behind a vision; it becomes a force that can create magic and build empires. Mr. MP Ahammed is one such visionary leader. His success is a testament to the fact that one can indeed build a business empire that spreads across continents without compromising on the principles of fair trade.
Born into a family of merchants and landlords, MP Ahammed started his business odyssey with a venture in spice trade in 1979. He is not only accustomed himself to the essentials of the agro-business trade, but also learned rare and precious business lessons that no Harvard degree could have imparted.
Wiser by experience, he laid the foundation of the Malabar Group along with an eclectic team of entrepreneurs by venturing into the jewellery segment in 1993. Two decades later, the group has carved a niche of its own in jewellery retailing, wholesaling and manufacturing; real estate and infrastructure development; home furniture, electronics & home appliances; and IT services and business solutions. Thanks to the genius of his vision, Malabar Gold & Diamonds today is among the top five jewellery retailers in the world.
A staunch believer of ‘doing good is good for your business’, he earmarks a percentage of the group’s annual profit for CSR initiatives in the fields of health, education, environment conservation, housing and women empowerment. While he remains humble around the eyes that look up to him, his legacy already has a rare glitter to it. The glitter of trust he has earned over the years. Just like a fine solitaire in one of his stores.
