Profile

A prominent player on the global market, Beladamas offers a wide range of diamonds – rounds
and fancy shapes – in fine make and in all colors.
Beladamas is a strategic supplier to some of the most prominent jewelry manufacturers and leading jewelry retailers across
the world. With strong financials, wide experience, expert knowledge, highly skilled team and a firm commitment to ethical
business practices, Beladamas seeks to satisfy every client’s need with the very best in diamonds.

History
Established in 1991 as a trading company of polished diamonds, Beladamas is the result of a fruitful co-operation between Daniel van Dievoet, from a well-known Belgian business family and the family of Sajid Sathak, a business family based in Southern India.
Riding on the vision and foresight of its founders, Beladamas soon established a worldwide clientele and became one of the prominent players on the Antwerp as well as global market. This called for a regular supply of diamonds, so Beladamas established its own polishing factory in Russia in January 1996 polishing stones up to 0.70cts in a wide variety of qualities and colors. A year later a second production facility was set up to polish larger diamonds, up to 20cts. As manufacturing grew, a network of sales offices were opened in premier diamond trading centres across the globe – Dubai (1996), New York (1997), Bangkok (1994), Chennaï (2008) and Mumbai (2012). Today, Beladamas boasts a long list of satisfied clients across the world. Besides manufacturing and marketing of polished diamonds, Beladamas also deals in rough diamonds – opening its rough diamond trading department in 2007. Beladamas covers a wide range of the rough diamond field – small sizes to stones above 3 carats.
Since taking over as Managing Directors in January 2012, Nafees Ahmed and Christophe de Borrekens have gone the extra mile to successfully meet the challenges of an increasingly competitive global marketplace. Coming from different ethnic backgrounds, they are able to identify the best business practices from each of their cultures and implement them in the business, giving themselves a unique business advantage. Leveraging their extended experience in the diamond industry to the utmost, Nafees and Christophe are eager to implement the vision of the founders – scaling ever greater heights of excellence.
Beladamas is founded as a polished diamond trading company through a partnership between Daniel van Dievoet of Belgium and the family of Sajid Sathak from Southern India.
