171. Vivian Grimes and Carolina Menendez of Henri Noël on Growing a Successful Jewelry Brand, Working with Your Best Friend, and How They Plan to Expand Their Business
Today’s guests are Vivian Grimes, Founder of Henri Noël, and Carolina Menendez, Head of Growth at Henri Noël.
Vivian’s grandfather opened his first jewelry store in 1981 in Naples, FL, where he spent his life curating handmade jewelry. His mission was to make simple and timeless pieces at the fairest prices. It is with that same passion that Vivian started Henri Noël, in his name, to continue his legacy of delivering the highest quality with the most honest value.
Each round brilliant cut diamond is hand-selected and matched before being crafted into a fine piece of jewelry. Major brands in the industry markup their products 6-8x the actual cost, but Henri Noël has built relationships over the course of 30 years in the business with the best manufacturers to sell directly to you. They love providing their clients with the best possible pieces.
Having run track at Boston College & USC, Vivian creates each piece with the intention to be worn during your workouts, beach days, and nights out - making every day a special occasion. With Carolina’s help as Head of Growth at Henri Noël the pair are unstoppable. We know listeners will enjoy today’s episode! One you will likely want to share with a friend.
