About Misfit: We are a B2B wholesaler within the jewelry industry that specializes in unique and unusual natural diamonds and sapphires. Founded in the summer of 2019 and headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, Misfit has grown to include offices in the US, UK and Toronto, Canada. Our goal is to create positive change within the diamond and sapphire supply chains and to raise the standards for what ethical sourcing looks like in our industry. As a result, we built our company around three pillars: 1. Leave the industry better than how we received it. We believe that ethical sourcing can go above and beyond “conflict-free” according to the Kimberly Process Certification Scheme (KPCS). Through verifiable origin, with mine-to-market documentation, it is possible to identify environmental conditions and labor practices used in bringing precious stones to market and identify what we can do to improve them. 1. Invest in our people. We embrace diversity in our hiring practices and welcome people from all backgrounds and walks of life. Opening the door for others to the industry and building a company that grows through investing in its people, providing them mentorship, professional development and opportunities for career growth and economic empowerment. 1. Giving back to our community and industry. Supporting local jewelry programs and schools in our communities, contributing to local charities and causes, as well as to programs creating positive change within our industry. As a b2b wholesaler within the jewelry industry, we believe in fostering symbiotic relationships with our clients in the trade, which is why our policy of no selling to the general public is a core principle for us. This means that employees may not engage in the solicitation or sale of jewelry or loose stones while employed at Misfit Diamonds.
