Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) organised an India Pavilion to give a platform to jewellers from across the country to showcase their collection to a global audience at a jewellery event in Las Vegas, USA.
 

Around 40 gem and jewellery exporters from India showcased their jewellery collections which were exclusively created for the US market.
 
With this event, India jewellers are looking to further strengthen its network and improve its exports to the USA.

Commenting on the event, Pramod Agrawal, chairman GJEPC in a statement said, “The USA is a significant market for the Indian gem and jewellery industry. India exported US$ 10.58 billion worth of gem & jewellery products to the US in 2018. The rising GDP growth, employment rate and private consumption expenditure in the US have contributed to the rise in India’s exports of gems and jewellery to the market.”
 
Colin Shah, vice chairman at GJEPC added, “The India design gallery highlights some of the finest contemporary jewelry available from India today. Indian jewellers and craftsmen cater to the most demanding customers across the globe. India’s ability to satiate any kind of jewellery requirements has always amazed the world.”
 
The GJEPC is the apex body of the gems & jewellery industry with over 600 exporters and was set up by the Government in 1966. It organises and participates in jewellery events across the globe.
