Hear What Buyers Say |
|
I’ve been attending this event for many years – first with my Australian business and now with my Philippines company that specialises in crystals. Hong Kong is a logical place to come as the focus of jewellery manufacturing has shifted eastwards to China. I used to source directly from Brazil, but now all the Brazilians are sending their materials to the mainland for manufacture. Here at the fair you can find all the suppliers under one roof, so it is easier than visiting individual factories. I can buy smaller orders on the spot here, while I can also place larger orders for later delivery. I can find everything I want at this show, and there are no worries as far as the organisation is concerned.
Kenneth H. Meyers, President, Mountain Province Gems & Minerals Inc., Philippines
We are a manufacturer of fine jewellery, supplying retailers in Canada and the US. We’ve been attending this fair for about 20 years. Here we can pick up on what is happening in the industry, and that is very important. This year we’ve noticed a lot of geometrics and mixing of colours of stones and metals – there is a lot of yellow and black combinations, for example. We’re looking to source stones and pearls in particular and this show offers a huge range. We can find new suppliers here as well as meeting with our existing ones. The facilities at this show are gorgeous.

Hear What Exhibitors Say |

We are a family-owned diamond and jewellery company, with headquarters in Tel Aviv and a branch in Hong Kong for the past 15 years. Starting as a diamond cutter, we moved into jewellery in 2000, and we carry out R&D and design in-house. We work closely with retail partners to help them upgrade their offering, and we pay real attention to the needs of the end-users in their particular markets. We have been exhibiting here for 10 years; through this event we maintain a visible presence in the market, look for new customers and also meet our regular clients – it certainly helps to boost sales. This year we are seeing more visitors from India – this market seems to be very active; also from Eastern Europe, Turkey and Thailand as well as the Chinese mainland. After this fair we will be able to gauge the direction of the market this year – from what I have seen so far here I am optimistic that there is strong demand in the market. We enjoy good service at this fair – it is well organised and a lot of work goes on behind the scenes before the event.
Kobi Itzchaki, Managing Director, Dalumi Hong Kong Limited, Hong Kong
Our company is just 18 months old, but my partner and I have been in the jewellery business for around eight years. We specialise in large, fine and rare coloured stones, such as spinels, garnets and tourmalines. We spend a lot of time in the field, carrying out research and visiting mines. Our customers are high-end jewellers and collectors, mainly based in the US and Europe; however, we want to move into Asia and this is why we are attending this show for the first time. Here we can meet buyers from across the region. We are particularly keen to develop the Chinese mainland market, but we have talked with buyers from Japan, Singapore and Taiwan as well. There are also buyers from Europe and the US here, so we take the opportunity to connect with them, too. I have to emphasise that our stones are of a very high quality and part of our mission here is to educate buyers in this end of the market, so we look at our presence here as part of a long-term strategy. This is a good fair – one reason being that Hong Kong is a great place to do business. As it is a free market, there is no problem with importing and exporting gemstones.
