Businesses hailing from 15 countries will present their collections and services across six show sectors: Bridal & Fine Jewellery, Silver & Semi Precious Jewellery, Jewellery Designers, Costume & Fashion, Watches and Retail Services & Solutions.
For exhibitors joining Jewellery & Watch for the first time in 2019, the show offers convenient access to the UK market at a strategic time of year.
For emerging designer-brand, Caitlin Victoria Jewellery, Jewellery & Watch offers business benefits as well as networking opportunities for its owner and director, Caitlin Gregory-Thomas. “I'm looking forward to meeting other designers and makers in the market, as well as buyers and potential customers,” she says. “I chose to exhibit at Jewellery & Watch as it's such a well-known event. People come from all over to see new work and find what they're looking for. There isn't really a better place to go in the hope of gaining custom.”
Many returning Jewellery & Watch exhibitors will be celebrating special anniversaries and milestones at this year's show. Silver designer jewellery brand, Lucy Quartermaine, will launch its new 'brand vision' with a champagne reception, while Unique & Co. will celebrate 20-consecutive years of exhibiting.
Also nearing its 20-year anniversary of exhibiting at Jewellery & Watch is London-based fine jewellery manufacturer and wholesaler, LM Jewellery. Director Linda Lousky, explains: “Our customer base is spread over the entire UK and Ireland so being able to see our range in such a central location as Birmingham guarantees us a successful exhibition year after year.”
The variety of buyers visiting Jewellery & Watch and neighbouring show, Spring Fair ensure a successful show for exhibitors with more innovative and creative design concepts. “This will be our third year exhibiting at Jewellery & Watch and it is definitely our favourite and most successful trade show,” explains Julie Fountain, owner and designer of Beach Art Glass.
In 2018, Jewellery & Watch secured 14,000 visitors, while its sister show, Spring Fair, welcomed more than 56,000 professionals across 14 diverse show sectors.
