Welcoming the international buyers to the Buyer-Seller meet, Colin Shah, Head – Working Group, Bharat Ratnam, Mega CFC said, “Bharat Ratnam is a pioneering initiative in India and Asia, possibly even globally, where we’ve established a Common Facility Centre offering 20 advanced technical services. These include lab testing, 3D printing, and more, designed to help our members compete on a global scale. The services are available for both domestic and international markets.”
GJEPC’s USA coordinator Ms. Mia Katerine said, “GJEPC’s Buyer Seller Meet is a great opportunity and a win-win situation for both the markets. There is a great opportunity for Indian jewellery exporters to tap the vast opportunities in the U.S., which has over 20,000 jewellery retailers and wholesalers. India is ideal for wholesale manufacturing and unique craftsmanship and exquisite designs. More importantly, India is quite competitive and cost-efficient despite having the latest technology in manufacturing, cutting and polishing diamonds.”
Brazilian retailers Mr. Nelson and Rodolfo Semeoni from Monte Cristo said, “Since we are one of the biggest jewellery retailers in Brazil, we are looking for strategic partners in India. Indian gem & jewellery industry is quite strong in all diverse aspects of the value chain. Brazil market also values precious stones such as emeralds and Jaipur in India is the global hub for precious stones. The bridal market in Brazil has evolved and we offer brides two distinct opportunities in terms of diamond rings and white gold jewellery – all of which can be sourced directly from India. We are also looking for premiumisation for discerning high end customers and India can help us there too.”
The BSM followed a structured Buyer Seller Meet format, featuring pre-scheduled one-on-one meetings lasting approximately 30 to 40 minutes between buyers and sellers during the two day meet.
The United States holds immense significance for the Indian gem and jewellery industry. Notably, cut and polished diamonds account for a substantial portion of these exports. India’s pivotal role in the global gem and jewellery supply chain have created deep-rooted ties between the two nations. GJEPC has further lined up events aimed at providing Indian gem and jewellery manufacturers with global exposure in the near future.
