GemFair

We recently hosted an event to showcase our reclamation and farming programme to civil society organisations in Kono, Sierra Leone. Attendees toured two reclamation sites, witnessing firsthand our commitment to environmental stewardship and livelihood creation. Our reclamation officer shared how we work with local communities—paying the wages of local workers and farmers, restoring land, providing training and promoting sustainable farming. The feedback was incredible! One attendee said, “I was blind to GemFair’s activities, but today opened my eyes.” Together, we’re encouraging communities to take ownership of these initiatives to a brighter, more sustainable future.   #sustainability #communityempowerment #buildingforever #responsiblesourcing #sustainabledevelopment

Community engagement is at the heart of everything we do. Our outreach in mining communities takes a holistic approach: At each village meeting, we introduce GemFair to local miners. We discuss the high value we place on raising mining standards, how we do this through training and one to one mentoring with miners and their implementation of remedial plans. We explain the way the GemFair buying process works and our emphasis on providing fair value and respect to our customers. In essence, we are set apart from other buyers in the district.

At GemFair, we’re committed to supporting local communities beyond mining, helping them reclaim their land for sustainable agriculture. As the rice harvest approaches, we're showcasing our reclamation programme, which provides vital resources and training, transforming mine sites into thriving farms that enhance food security and local livelihoods.    Together, GemFair is building a brighter future, where artisanal mining and sustainable development go hand in hand.   #gemfair #buildingforever #ethicaljewellery #sustainabledevelopment #naturaldiamonds

Diamonds come in all shapes and sizes, but each one plays an important role in supporting artisanal mining communities.  Through the GemFair program, we work with around 6,450 artisanal miners across more than 400 sites in Sierra Leone, a country known for its stunning and valuable diamonds.  Learn more about how GemFair's ethically sourced diamonds benefit local communities on our website: www.gemfair.com #GemFair #BuildingForever #NaturalDiamonds #ArtisanalMining  #SustainableDevelopment

For over six years, our dedicated driving team have maintained a spotless safety record, getting our field officers to and from sites, while facing challenging road conditions, steep slopes, and more, on a daily basis. To maintain our high safety standards, last week, we had the privilege of hosting Chris, a consultant driver trainer, at our Sierra Leone office to lead a crucial defensive driving training session.   At GemFair, safety is always our top priority. #GemFair #SafetyFirst #BuildingForever #SierraLeone

Behind every diamond is a team that keeps us shining! Today we're spotlighting the GemFair finance team and their dedication to helping Sierra Leone's artisanal diamond miners. #GemFair #BuildingForever #SierraLeone #NaturalDiamonds

Rough diamonds in their natural state - uncut and unpolished, but with a brilliance waiting to be revealed. These precious stones are what we purchase every day from artisanal miners. In doing so, the GemFair program supports approximately 6,540 artisanal producers across 400 sites in Sierra Leone.
