Houlden members gathered for their first face-to-face meeting since the start of lockdown at Mottram Hall, Cheshire, UK, in June, 2021. Members said they had hit the ground running on reopening, reporting strong growth, especially in wedding rings, bespoke and branded jewellery.
The mood of the room was expressed by Andrew Pass of John Pass Jewellers, who said: “This last year could have been a lonely and isolated time during the pandemic, but Houlden showcased the strength of our community by allowing us to share experiences, ideas and successes.”
