Grace Mahas — October 29, 2024Fine jewelry brand Mejuri is reshaping industry standards through its comprehensive sustainability initiatives, marking a milestone of $1 million USD in contributions through its Empowerment Fund. The brand's commitment extends beyond social impact with its ambitious climate-positive goals, targeting a 50% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030. This environmental strategy is complemented by the launch of its Design Excellence Award, which pledges $50,000 USD across five prestigious art institutions including Central Saint Martins and RISD.
The company's dedication to sustainable practices is evident in its material sourcing, with 93.8% of its gold and 92.3% of its silver derived from recycled sources. Its recent $1.5M investment in Salmon Gold and launch of a dedicated capsule collection further demonstrates its commitment to responsible jewelry production while supporting habitat restoration.
