Trafalgar Luxury Group launches a new initiative titled “It’s Kuwaiti” supporting local talent in Kuwait involved in the art of jewelry-making. The group announced the collaboration with homegrown brands as it continues to diversify its vast portfolio to now include emerging Kuwaiti jewelry designers.
The company aims to support small local businesses, offering them a platform to showcase their creations, to demonstrate craftsmanship, and the opportunity to share their story. Devoted to the community and its future, the Trafalgar Luxury Group is looking to make a difference through helping locally owned brands to highlight their designs, encouraging aspiring entrepreneurs to better their craft and supporting them to further grow their business.
