Indian exhibitors are present in both these locations under the common banner of GJEPC’s India Pavilion.
Pramod Agrawal, Chairman, GJEPC said, “Last year, Hong Kong has been the largest export market for the Indian Gem & Jewellery industry. It has always been our effort to give our manufacturers the maximum opportunity to showcase their exquisite jewellery collections to markets in and around Hong Kong through this show. June Hong Kong Jewellery & Gems Fair is rightly placed for mid-year jewellery sourcing in Asia and this time we have 42 gem and jewellery manufacturers participating from India under India Pavilion. The platform will be an opportunity for exhibitors to enhance the existing relationship with buyers and create new ones.”
Today, India is renowned across the world as the destination for sourcing quality gems and jewellery. The export of gems& jewellery accounted for US$ 42 billion in 2017. Hong Kong was the leading export destination in 2017 with total exports pegged at US$ 14 billion (33%).
