Exports & Exhibitions

As a well-known jewellery trading centre, Hong Kong has long-standing experience in organising large-scale jewellery exhibitions. Each year, Hong Kong hosts a number of well-known jewellery fairs, including the Hong Kong International Jewellery Show in March, the Hong Kong Jewellery & Gem Fair and the Hong Kong International Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show in June and September. The events have brought together thousands of exhibitors from all over the world and attracted countless buyers.

Hong Kong’s jewellers also actively participate in international exhibitions which are effective ways to promote products and explore export opportunities. Since the 1970s, HKTDC and HKJJA have led Hong Kong companies to markets around the globe. Hong Kong manufacturers span the world, such as Vicenzaoro fairs in Italy, JA New York Show in the States, , Asia’s Fashion Jewellery & Accessories Fair in Hong Kong, Japan Jewellery Fair in Japan, as well as Informa Markets’’s jewellery fairs around the world.

Hong Kong jewellers have been regulars at international jewellery exhibitions. They are glittering in Asia as well as the world. The three largest markets are the United States, the European Union and Switzerland, which account for a total of nearly 56%. For re-exports, they are mainly imitation jewellery from origins outside of Hong Kong. Mainland China is the largest source of such re-exports, accounting for 86% in the first half of 2018.
