Mani Story


During the last five decades, Mani Export has developed to become a worldwide known and renowned contributor to the diamond industry. Our competence is in producing a consistent supply of excellent polished diamonds in a variety of shapes and sizes. Ever since, the corporation’s fundamental principles have been accountability, confidence and integrity. Mani Export has developed its very own empire over the past decades and is considered to be a successful manufacturer of diamonds.
The business is firmly founded on values and traditions, and the roles of the company management are now being slowly transferred to the highly qualified young generation. The three sons of Mr Mathurbhai Sojitra, Anil Sojitra, Alpesh Sojitra and Chetan Sojitra now play an important role in the core fields of the company’s buying, manufacturing, distribution, marketing and global management.
We are recognized for importing, processing and exporting diamonds to several other firms across the globe. We sell to a range of countries across the globe including the USA, Hong Kong, China, Israel and the UK being the major ones. To get the rough diamond, we connect with Russia, Belgium, Botswana and Dubai to turn the raw stones into the sparkling polished diamonds that reach you.
At Mani, each division works with the same morals as the main office, and this is evident from the performance of each business segment and also the history of year-on-year progress! With the advantage of getting the finest suppliers for rough diamonds and even the opportunity to deliver polished diamonds and finished jewellery at the highest available downstream value, we are indeed the choice that our consumers are searching for.
