HK Sept fair to open up endless opportunities

The September Hong Kong Jewellery & Gem Fair, dubbed the world’s largest fine jewellery exhibition, will launch its 2016 edition during 13-17 September at AsiaWorld-Expo (AWE), and 15-19 September at Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre (HKCEC).

The effective sectorisation initiative which groups exhibits by category allows for easy navigation despite the large scale and wide range of exhibits. Under the initiative, all kinds of jewellery raw materials including diamonds, gemstones, pearls, and packaging, tools and equipment are housed at AWE, while finished jewellery is available at HKCEC.

The seven-day B2B event will turn Hong Kong into the world’s jewellery and gemstone trading hub with over 3,750 exhibitors from 50 countries and regions, according to show organiser UBM Asia. The show will feature the world’s biggest diamond pavilion, Asia’s biggest gemstones, pearl and antique & vintage jewellery pavilions.

According to UBM Asia, the September fair has the highest participation of key players in the world’s jewellery trade. Over 70 percent of buyers at the fair are from overseas. High level of visitor satisfaction was recorded with over 85 percent of respondents giving the Fair a rating of 7 out of 10 (excellent).
