Mar 2019
The four-day event JMA Hong Kong 2018 (“the Show”) ended on a high note on Dec 2 (Sunday) at Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC). With our brand new Jewelry Party zone and diversified activities, the Show attracted over 26,000 buyers in 4 days with 7% increase of buyer attendance comparing with the last edition, a record high number of visitors.
Continuous Growth in Scale and our Effort in Exploring the Emerging Market
Opening the Show, Mr. William Li, Chairman of JMA Hong Kong Committee, Hong Kong Jewelry Manufacturers’ Association (HKJMA), delivered his welcoming speech, “As the Show comes to its 26th edition, this year’s Show is bigger than ever. By keeping Hall 3F&G from last year, we have a record high of 958 exhibitors from 24 countries and regions, making a total of 1535 booths. With our Show being one of Asia’s key jewelry events, we invited jewelry brands, designers from mainland and overseas, as well as organizing VIP tours for buyers in China, Korea and Myanmar in view of the recent government policy such as the One Belt, One Road Initiative and the development of Greater Bay Area, with hopes of expanding our market in emerging countries and mainland China.” In addition, we are honored to welcome the visit of Mr. Saif Mohammed Al Midfa, the CEO of Expo Centre Sharjah and the organizer of the MidEast Watch & Jewellery Show, in support of our Show.
Brand New Jewelry Party Zone for an Amazing Treasure Hunting Experience
With our brand new Jewelry Party Zone at Hall 1E, visitors were invited to embark on an amazing Treasure Hunting journey. Showcasing party jewelry of different themes, the zone is a montage of every precious moment in one’s life. Here, visitors can find glamorous décor and plenty of Instagram-worthy spots. Friends and family come together and take a picture with the JMA International Jewelry Design Competition final entries with our AR setup. Visitors are introduced to our games and activities, including the Gem and Pearl Accessory Workshop, a Giant Jewelry Capsule Machine with jewelry surprises and an AR motion game. In celebration of the 30th anniversary of HKJMA, we have the HKJMA 30th Anniversary Charity Sale. All proceeds will be donated to the Haven of Hope Christian Service.
