The 2nd edition of the IIJS Tritiya India International Jewellery Show was held at Bangalore International Exhibition Centre (BIEC) from 5th to 8th April 2024.
The Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) unveiled its Brilliant Bharat theme for the event aimed at rediscovering and celebrating India’s traditions, cultural diversity, and innovative technology.
Vipul Shah, Chairman of GJEPC and Dr. Chetan Kumar Mehta, President of the Jewellers Association Bengaluru, signed an MoU to promote gem and jewellery exports from India through a series of initiatives to be fronted by GJEPC including the Karnataka Jewellery Park.
This year’s IIJS Tritiya featured over 900 exhibitors and 1,900 stalls across 40,000 square meters. It provided invaluable opportunities for industry players to connect, collaborate, and thrive. With over 15,000 pre-registered visitors from over 500 cities in India and 60 countries, it underscored the event’s global significance.
“We are a USD 40 billion export industry today, but the scope and potential for further growth is immense, with the ever-increasing demand in the global gem and jewellery market, ” said Vipul Shah.
“GJEPC is working closely with Government to secure favorable polices in the upcoming trade pacts for our sector including FTAs with GCC, Canada, UK and EU. Additionally, GJEPC has successfully pursued the government to introduce measures to facilitate ease of doing business in the e-commerce for retail exports of jewellery from the country, enabling Indian sellers to seamlessly deliver their products to global buyers.”
