SINGAPORE, July 26, 2016
/PRNewswire/ – The largest fine jewellery fair in the region, the
Singapore Jewellery & Gem Fair, returns for its fourth edition in
November this year. The fair takes place from 4 to 7 November 2016
at the Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre.
Retailers, buyers and avid collectors can look forward to a massive
selection of fine jewellery from over 200 international exhibitors which
will be available at wholesale prices. Exhibitors at the fair will
showcase luxurious jewellery collections to everyday wearable pieces by
internationally-acclaimed jewellers from Austria, Belgium, Germany, Hong
Kong, India, Italy, Japan, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, USA,
Singapore and other parts of the world.
The Singapore Jewellery & Gem Fair has grown significantly in terms
of visitors as well as buyers over the years. In 2015, the fair
attracted 10,018 buyers and achieved approximately S$16 million in
onsite sales. Southeast Asia is an emerging market with over US$50
billion worth of jewellery in the region.
“We have seen an increase in the number of trade buyers attending the
Singapore Jewellery and Gem Fair, including Poh Kong Jewellery from
Malaysia, Pesona Fine Jewelry from Indonesia, as well as local retailers
such as Aspial-Lee Hwa Jewellery, Sookee Jewellery and Poh Heng
Jewellery. We believe it is important for retailers to source a wider
variety of designs to cater to the different needs and demands of their
customers. At the same time, retailers can also take the opportunity to
learn about and adapt new technologies which help them to expand their
offerings with cost reduction,” said Paul Wan, Managing Director, UBM
Exhibition Singapore Pte Ltd.
This year, the Singapore Jewellery & Gem Fair will debut the Tools
& Equipment pavilion where visitors will be able to learn more about
the latest jewellery making techniques and witness the technology
behind it. The theme of this pavilion is aligned with the Singapore
government’s initiatives to encourage retailers and jewellers to adopt
technology such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Augmented
Reality, Virtual Try-ons and 3D-printing to improve customer experience
and expand their business offerings.

Singapore Pte Ltd, a member of UBM Asia, the organiser of the world’s
leading jewellery event – the September Hong Kong Jewellery & Gem
