NO. 1 B2B & B2C SHOW

Gems and jewellery shows are organised all over the world. However, in India, these shows are usually either exclusive B2B international shows or consumer shows. In contrast, JJS is a unique show that focuses on both B2B and B2C formats. Jewellers and consumers find this rare platform ideal for 360-degree feedback.

On the B2C side, consumers get the opportunity to explore products in an easy and accessible format across more than 1200 booths. They can conveniently choose and shop from multiple vendors, match pieces with their own retailers and friends, and finalise purchases — creating a delightful and enriching experience.

SOCIAL MEDIA AT JJS

The Jaipur Jewellery Show has a dedicated social media team. The team has envisioned a platform that will provide its exhibitors, access to millions of potential consumers at low cost and with a realistic insight.

Engagement is a highlight of this strategy where the consumers can shed their traditional and purely passive role to interact directly with the exhibitors, which in turn would provide opportunities to build trustworthy relationships. With trust and transparency in the environment, the conversion rates will grow massively.

The team is not merely on a mission to get maximum likes on Facebook or a large number of followers on Twitter or Instagram. The team’s vision is to unlock the wealth of information that hides behind these staggering numbers for the exhibitors.

The social media would make JJS a more efficient organization where the exhibitors would equip themselves with smarter decision-making capabilities in business. Also, the consumers would have an enriching and engaging experience.

JAIPUR JEWELLERY DESIGN FESTIVAL (JJDF)

To encourage and promote designers, the Jaipur Jewellery Show is hosting the Jaipur Jewellery Design Festival (JJDF) for the 8th time this year. The festival will feature 67 booths.

Key attractions include designer booths, live demonstrations by artisans showcasing traditional ghaat work and intricate engraving techniques. An institutional display will offer insights into the technical aspects of jewellery design and production. Under “Uncut,” engaging knowledge sessions and special talk shows with industry leaders will also be organised.

At JJDF, students from 8 to 10 leading design institutes will be given a platform to showcase their creations. JJDF 2025 will highlight Jaipur’s creativity through the participation of emerging designers from top institutes, as well as artisans and designers.

MEDICAL FACILITIES FOR VISITORS

Special attention has been given to the convenience and safety of visitors. The show will have robust arrangements for medical aid, ambulance services, fire safety, and overall security.

JJS’S CONTRIBUTION TO ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

JJS has always made a significant contribution towards environmental protection. In this direction, canvas has been used for branding the show this year. Apart from this, a PET bottle crusher machine will also be installed in JJS this year, which will allow the plastic bottles to be destroyed immediately and their granules to be recycled. This initiative will help in the disposal of plastic waste and will contribute to environmental protection.

FOCUS ON NEW TRENDS IN JEWELLERY

One of the key highlights of the Jaipur Jewellery Show is its strong focus on the latest designs and new jewellery settings. Visitors get to explore everything from traditional heavy gold ornaments to the latest trends in lightweight jewellery. Those looking for fashion accessories and stone-studded pieces will not be disappointed. A strong demand for both yellow and white gold jewellery is expected.

Jewellery featuring fancy-cut gemstones with traditional and oriental aesthetics will be displayed. Kundan Meena jewellery is also expected to remain a major attraction this year. The innovative use of lightweight and coloured gemstones will introduce several affordable jewellery items.

BEST BOOTH TROPHY

A new award category has been added to JJS this year. Under this category, the first and second best booths in the 9-square-metre segment will be honoured.

JJS – A COMPLETE SHOW

This year too, the JJS will be a complete show with diamonds, colour stones, precious metals – silver, gold, base metals-carving and beads. The exposition will also cover jewellers and gemstone dealers, jewellery institutes, publications apart from others. There will be separate sections for jewellery and gemstones. This categorization will make it convenient for the customers to search out the product of their choice.

WHY JAIPUR?

The reason why the fabled Pink City has been chosen to be the venue for JJS is the incontrovertible fact that it happens to be a G&J City. Jaipur has a rich tradition, as old as the city’s history itself, of the exquisite art of jewellery and gem-stones. Little wonder that JJS has become an important annual fixture of a happening city called Jaipur. People now look forward to it.

It would not be out of place to mention that some of the top companies in the country are making a beeline for the ochre-pink city for having international conventions, conclaves, symposiums, seminars and workshops. And when the city also happens to be a tourist / shopping destination, it sure is an added advantage. The city has come into its own as a convention / business centre par excellence.
