Pandora's success continued to soar, and the company expanded globally.

Their distinctive jewellery designs, especially the charm bracelets, resonated with customers worldwide.
In 2010, Pandora became a publicly traded company, listing its shares on the NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen stock exchange. The following years saw significant growth for the company, with a rapid increase in the number of concept stores and authorized retailers worldwide. Pandora's revenue and popularity continued to rise, and they gained recognition as a leading jewellery brand known for their high-quality craftsmanship and innovative designs.
However, the company faced some challenges in the mid-2010s as demand for their charm bracelets declined. To adapt to changing consumer preferences, Pandora expanded its product offerings beyond charm bracelets and introduced new jewellery lines, including rings, earrings, necklaces, and watches. They also invested in digital marketing strategies and online sales channels to reach a broader customer base.
Pandora Jewellery is known globally for its hand-finished and contemporary jewellery pieces and the company has experienced remarkable growth and success since its humble beginnings in 1982.
