Jewellery & Watch will make a positive investment into the show, taking on board customer feedback to create a more modern interior using sharp editing with excellent branding.
Acting as a department store for the jewellery and watch trade, the show will be easier to navigate for customers, to find innovative and exciting collections on display, making their stores stand out on the high street.
Jewellery & Watch is positioning itself in the heart of the British jewellery and watch industry, near the Birmingham Jewellery Quarter.
The show plans to embrace this location by being at the centre of customer businesses and listening to challenges and opportunities that arise, keeping ahead of the trade.
Jewellery & Watch obsesses on improving and proving the value of the show by delivering essential content and networking at the centre of England, enabling retailers to survive and thrive on the high street.
Jewellery & Watch promises to bring customers together at every stage, linking brands and buyers 365 days a year, maximising ROI for every exhibitor involved.
Jewellery & Watch has an impressive set of brands already lined up for February 2017 fitting perfectly into each defined category.
The Fine & Diamond section will see the likes of Clogau who have committed to the show for the next 3 years, Domino, Hockley Mint , Arctic Circle, Corona, London Pearl and GEMEX.
The Loose Gems section sees the return of RM Shah and Di Perle, whilst Silver & Semi-Precious Jewellery will showcase designs from Elements Silver Clogau, Uno de 50, Espree, and Hot Diamonds.
Watches have confirmed Best Watch Stand winner, BERING, alongside Storm of London, Condor – Royal London Watches, DILOY, Issey Miyake and Henderson (J&K Enterprises).
Winner of The Creative British category at the Display Awards, Alex Monroe, will display show-stopping collections in the Jewellery Designers section alongside Lucy Q, Fei Liu Fine Jewellery and Bill Skinner Studio.
The growing Retail Solutions area will see the likes of Bransom, Clarity & Success, Sutton Tools, WOLF, Noble Gift Packaging and Midland Displays.
Jewellery & Watch will be expanding the National Association of Jewellers CPD education programme for 2017, by developing ideas for further content to run alongside the show, and continue to drive visitor volume.
Jewellery & Watch prides itself on being one of the best opportunities for exhibitors to prepare for the year ahead, with the largest choice and number of new collections to entice retailers and buyers.
Visitors are able to discover beautiful, designer and on trend stock, diversifying store offerings, gaining business support, and making valuable contacts that will build a successful business.
“Jewellery & Watch aims to be the UK’s largest and most influential source of jewellery and watch collections in the UK, connecting and inspiring the jewellery community with new discoveries and insights that can lead to sustainable growth,” said Julie Driscoll, Portfolio Director for Jewellery & Watch.
