YGI Group Employee Directory

YGI Group is widely recognized as a leader in the manufacturing and distribution of fine jewelry products, but the story started many years and miles ealier. Having immigrated from Israel to the United States in 1997, Haviv Kassab got an entry level job at a Fine Jewelry store on 165th street in Jamaica Avenue, Queens. Working tirelessly to make so... mething of himeself in his new surroundings, he quickly understood the business and went on to manage the store before opening his very own in 1989. By 1995, Haviv had opened three succesful retails stores a few blocks apart all on Jamaica Avenue, Queens. But he sought out to create something more, something greater, and in 1997 YGI Group was born. Starting with a factory producing religious charms and bracelets, Haviv began distributing to his own stores as well as wholesalers in the tri-state area. With the success of the factory he went on to open our corporate office in New York City's Diamond District. A lot has changed since then, but our goals and values remain the same.
