Imperial Pearl announces that it will launch its “Partner’s in Pearls” e-Learning initiative at JCK Las Vegas. This industry leading program uses the latest advances in on-line learning methods and technology to achieve greater results for Imperial’s retail partners.  

 The initial offering, called “Pearls 101” is designed to bring each participant to a baseline level of performance and pearl knowledge. Subsequent courses will build on this solid foundation to enhance the performance of participants. 

The course is self-paced allowing participants to speed up or slow down as they desire. It is accessible to participants 24/7. According to the American Society for Training and Development retention rates for classroom style “tell only” training is 10% after three days. The retention rate for e-learning “show, tell and do” training is above 65% after three days.

While we were in Tahiti watching the preparations for the big event, which was held at the Sheraton, our hotel and the parade of these beautiful young ladies we found Tahiti's other gems to be more bountiful than ever. You may be able to see both at JCK as I invited Martin Coeroli to bring Hantatea to JCK and join us for a party but for certain you will see Tahiti's other gem.

Foreigner’s passion for pearl on Con Dao Island

 

 

Dong lai

 

 

The determination of the ‘pearl Westerner’

From the centre of the Con Dao district, it is easy to ask for the way to the house of the ‘pearl Westerner,’ a nickname the Con Dao people call Jordan Lee, from Australia.

Jordan Lee is the first foreigner to start business in Con Dao island by opening a farm to raise oysters to cultivate pearls.

With an initial investment of over a hundred of thousand dollars, after six years, the couple of Jordan and Pham Thi Kim Cuc multiplied hundreds of millions of young oysters and released them to the sea.

The couple have been particularly successful in cultivating pearls in the oysters and have already harvested cultivated pearls. 

Jordan has not only helped save oysters but has also created a trademark for Con Dao cultivated pearls.

The villa where the family of Jordan and Kim Cuc live and also the office of the Con Dao Pearl Company has been decorated in such a way that any one can realize at once the passion for sea and pearls of its owners.

Cultured Pearls*
Update on Global Supply, Demand and Distribution

 

 

 

The industry has matured. Traders can now work with new and less expensive pearls. They can buy cheaper and sell cheaper. Finally, the end-consumer can now also benefit from the new prices. For many, it’s a new start! It falls right into a period where a new, trendy generation comes into play. A generation that no longer looks back to the fashion and tradition that demanded pearls to be white and round, but to the future, where the criterion of beauty and fashion demand all kinds of shapes and colours, at affordable prices. And that’s exactly what today’s market can offer. Today’s lower prices, combined with a much larger variety, will boost demand in existing markets.
