Chau Lui is the co-owner, along with her sister Trang, of Paris Jewellers, a proudly Canadian -Vietnamese women-owned and operated jewellery company focused on community partnerships, customer experience and supporting women. The company has a 90% women workforce.

Paris Jewellers aims to spread joy while making a difference in the community. During the pandemic, they have raised over 100,000 meals for Food Banks Canada, $30,000 for Make-A-Wish® Canada, over $31,000 for The Matriarch Movement, and $10,000 for Ronald McDonald House Charities.

“I never dreamed that I could sell my products outside of Canada. Now, with being online, you can reach so many people and that is a huge opportunity.”
On this week’s Startup Women Podcast, sponsored by the Business Development Bank of Canada and Scotiabank, Chau shares why making data-driven decisions as a creative entrepreneur is so important, and why community give back is a pillar of her business.
