Hear What Buyers Say |

 “In business for 25 years, we are operating a chain of 32 retail stores in Indonesia selling gold and diamond jewellery products. This is our third-year visit to Hong Kong International Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show. We focus on sourcing small-sized loose diamonds to go with the design of our jewellery collections. The previous two visits were very successful and that’s why we are coming back. We’ve already found two new suppliers of diamonds from India in the first day of exhibition. We will look into the pricing and quality of diamonds closely to develop business with them. This is a very good fair with so many exhibitors from different parts of the world, offering a wide range of merchandises to see and source. We can find everything we want here. This is an excellent sourcing platform and a must-attend event for us every year. We also take the chance to visit Hong Kong International Jewellery Show. It’s a smart move to hold these two fairs concurrently.”
Sjarkowi Hanafi, General Manager, PT. Gold Martindo, Indonesia |

 “We specialise in the wholesale and retail business of diamond and jewellery products in Russia. This is our first-ever visit to Hong Kong International Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show to source loose diamonds. The first day of visit turned out to be quite successful as we’ve got in touch with two exhibitors from Israel and India for diamonds in varied sizes. We will discuss further on the pricing and specific requirements during the fair. This is only the first day of exhibition. We expect to find more suppliers and interesting offers in the next few days. If everything works out smoothly, we will place orders worth between US$20,000 and US$150,000, subject to final negotiation. This is an excellent place to meet people and do business. We will definitely come again next year.”

 “In business since the 1960s, HINI Star produces a wide range of top quality diamonds with strong emphasis on our cutting and quality. We are employing some 8,000 staff with a large-scaled factory in the city of Surat in India. We have established a strong reputation in the industry with an extensive presence in Southeast Asia. The Asian economies are still growing, thus driving demand for diamonds. As a long-time exhibitor of this fair, we take the opportunity to meet customers and showcase a great variety of diamonds in different sizes. We are able to receive orders and secure new buyers every year. The Hong Kong fair is always the best of its kind in the world, offering an ideal platform to raise our profile, meet buyers from all over the world and strengthen ties with customers. This is the perfect place to expand further our business.”
Smit Virani, Managing Director, HINI Star Limited, Hong Kong |

 “With a business history of 40 years, HRD Antwerp is a leading authority in diamond certification offering a reputable laboratory, education programmes and technologically advanced diamond equipment. As part of the Antwerp World Diamond Centre pavilion, we are taking advantage of this fair to promote our services and reach out to more customers. We are especially interested in growing our presence in Asia and the Middle East including India and the Chinese mainland. One of the highlights for this year’s exhibition is the M-Screen super-fast screening device that automatically screens and sorts round brilliant diamonds. We’ve got a steady flow of customers coming to us for on-the-spot diamond grading service here. The Hong Kong fair is absolutely the meeting place for industry players from all over the world to do business.”
Jennie Baeten, Marketing Manager, HRD Antwerp, Belgium |
