The difference between a Diamond Wholesaler, a Diamond Merchant and a Diamond Manufacturer

Diamond Merchants
A diamond merchant is a general description for a business that trades in diamonds. It does not specify whether they deal with the public or deal only with other businesses. So a diamond merchant can be a retailer of diamonds or a wholesaler of diamonds or they can sell diamonds to both the public and other businesses. Many successful diamond merchants either deal with the public or deal with other businesses. It's rarely that they can be both, since most jewellers won't buy diamonds from a diamond merchant that is competing against them.

Diamond Wholesalers
A diamond wholesaler is a more specific description for a business that sells diamonds to other businesses only, such as jewellers. There are many businesses out there that claim to be diamond wholesalers even though they only sell diamonds to the public and not to other businesses. There is nothing wrong with selling diamonds at wholesale prices to the public, but technically if a business is selling diamonds only to the public (even if their prices were the cheapest in the world) they are still not technically a diamond wholesaler. They are a diamond retailer, as "Retail" describes Business-to-Public trading and not Business-to-Business trading. However diamond retailers can still sell diamonds at wholesale equivalent prices, since they are usually not controlled on how much they can charge their customers and many retailers now-days can buy diamonds directly from diamond manufacturers. Nothing wrong with selling cheaper diamonds to the public, however we believe that it's not appropriate that some diamond retailers and jewellers call themselves diamond wholesalers when they don't actually sell diamonds to jewellers or other businesses, but instead they only sell diamonds to the public.

Diamond Manufacturers
A Diamond Manufacturer is a business that buys the rough diamonds and will cut / manufacture them to create polished loose diamonds, ready for mounting in jewellery. Diamond manufacturers are usually diamond wholesalers as well, as the expense involved of being a diamond manufacturer is usually not viable if they trade diamonds publicly, since they need to sell diamonds in bulk and quickly at the minimum wholesale price. Only other businesses, such as diamond wholesalers and jewellers will be able to buy diamonds directly from a diamond manufacturer. It is scarce that a diamond manufacturer will sell diamonds to the public.
