EGL Rights Holders Announce Reorganization of EGL Representation in Israel

(IDEX Online News) – The holders of EGL rights in Israel and Guy Benhamou have announced that the Eurogem laboratory in Israel (also known as EGL International), has ended its operations as an EGL laboratory as of today (April 2).

The rights holders said that the European Gemological Center (EGC) is now the sole laboratory in Israel licensed to issue and distribute EGL grading reports and to represent and make use of the EGL brand in Israel.

Menahem Sevdermish, CEO of EGC and global brand manager of EGL Worldwide (with the exception of EGL USA), will cooperate closely with the EGL laboratories around the world and will oversee the diamond grading operations in each and every laboratory, to ensure uniformity in the grading processes and protocol.

EGL said it thanked Guy D. Benhamou for his 23 years of service and his contribution to the development of the company in Israel and wishes him best of luck in his new endeavors.
