Half of life's joy lies in giving. But many of us often face
a dilemma - what kind of
gift can we buy for those we cherish? Eleganza, Sanjay
Bhasija's one-stop gift shop has the sort of items that
are difficult to find elsewhere. There are writing instruments,
perfumes, dolls, wallets, crystal-ceramic ware and show pieces,
chocolates, watches, jewellery pieces, leather belts and even
sunglasses.
Started by the brother duo Sanjay and Jitesh Hasija ten
years ago, 'Eleganza', situated at Highpoint,
is a house of many imported and branded gift items. Esprite,
Pierre Cardin, Karen Dacha', Stud Pont, Swarovski, Lladro, Olympus,
Police, Gucci and even DKNY brands are available here.
"Eleganza means elegance. The friendly ambience, personalized
service and wide range of products sets us apart from other
similar establishments," says a beaming Sanjay.
"Most of our clients are the affluent people from the middle
class and upper-middle class strata of society. The location
of the store is a big advantage for
us as only a particular class of people enter this premises.
We started catering to that particular class," explains
Sanjay.
Eleganza is brand conscious and this is also to their
advantage because it is well known that people these days are
equally brand conscious and demand genuine branded articles.
The market has opened up and grown extensively over the years,
giving ample warning to manufacturers to become quality conscious.
Gifts available here could range anywhere between Rs 100/-Rs
30,000.
"Recognizing the market pulse, flow and good service is
absolutely vital to click and survive in this business. We also
do home deliveries free of charge for some of our special customers
who are well known to us," added Sanjay.
Eleganza accepts all credit cards except the Diners
Card. Many celebrity customers also keep dropping in here
from time to time. If you want to show someone just how much
you care for them, pick up one of Eleganza's 'must-have'
pieces. Or, for a change, gift yourself something.
