Beveli Stands with Ukraine: Condemning the Russian Invasion and Supporting the People of Ukraine

Published on 06-Sep-2022

Over 100 days ago, Russia launched an unprovoked and unjustified military invasion into Ukraine, violating international law and threatening European and global security and stability. The Beveli team is horrified by the Russian military attack on Ukraine and the pain and suffering it is imposing on Ukrainians and all those who hold them dear. We join the international community in condemning the war in Ukraine and are focused on supporting people in Ukraine during this difficult time.

You may have noticed that our team has been relatively quiet on social media since the invasion started on February 24th. This is because Beveli devoted all available time and resources to helping Ukrainian refugees in Poland and organizing the delivery of essential humanitarian aid to Ukraine. However, as the conflict continues, we are slowly returning to what we do best: serving our customers with the best-in-class jewelry and precious stones.

We are committed to supporting Ukraine, and we have pledged to donate 10% of our sales made by the end of 2022 to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. We want to make it clear that Beveli has never done business with Russia before and will not in the future. We do not make investments into Russia, sell jewelry or stones to Russian clients, or source any stones from the region. Our team conducts extensive due diligence to ensure that the stones we offer are conflict-free based on the Kimberley Process and are not sourced from Russia.

We urge our colleagues in the industry to stand with Ukraine and stop doing any business with Russian counterparts. Every penny made by Russian companies is directly financing the barbaric Russian army through taxes. As a business, we have a responsibility to do what we can to support those affected by this conflict.

As the conflict in Ukraine continues, Beveli stands with Ukraine, and we urge our customers and colleagues in the industry to do the same. We end our statement with the powerful message, "Glory to Ukraine!" - a show of solidarity with the Ukrainian people during this difficult time.

 

Sincerely,
Beveli Team
