Emma Wilson's £4M success story fuels her bold new jewellery venture

Emma Wilson has built a reputation for turning small ventures into major successes. By 30, she grew a leather jacket brand from £30,000 to £4 million in revenue. Now, she’s launching a new jewellery label, Kouree, with the same drive that shaped her career so far. Wilson first made her mark at Nadine Merabi, a fashion brand she joined early in its growth. At just 27, she became a partner when the company was generating £30,000 annually. Over eight years as managing director and later CEO, she expanded it into a £40 million global business.

Her work ethic became clear during this time. Even after giving birth, she took less than four weeks of maternity leave to stay at the helm. Wilson’s approach blends ambition with enjoyment, summed up by her motto: *have fun, but get sh*t done.* In 2025, she left Nadine Merabi to start Kouree, a Manchester-based jewellery brand. The label has already attracted attention, with celebrities like Lindsay Lohan wearing its designs. Wilson sees this new venture as a chance to redefine success—prioritising both professional achievement and personal well-being. She also credits her progress to surrounding herself with positive influences. For Wilson, growth comes from the right mindset as much as hard work.

Kouree marks another bold step in Wilson’s career. The brand reflects her belief in balancing ambition with fulfilment. With a track record of rapid growth and high-profile interest, her latest project is already making waves in the industry.
