LONDON – A panel discussion at the Jewellery Show on September 1, 2024, will be tailored content for the British Asian jewellery community, and will look at opportunities and challenges facing this segment of the UK jewellery market which punches above its weight in terms of its turnover driven by 22-carat gold jewellery sales.
The panel will cover opportunities such as how to reach out to super-affluent jewellery customers from the Indian diaspora visiting the UK, as well as challenges such as a growing trend for violent crimes against jewellers, linked to a wider public perception of buoyant gold prices.
The discussion will also focus on the British Asian Jewellers’ Alliance (BAJA), which plans to lobby groups such as the NAJ to protect the interests of the British Asian jewellery community.
The panel will look at opportunities for Indian gem and jewellery exporters to the UK market.
The Jewellery Show, now in its third edition, will feature an India Pavilion for the first time.
The discussion, moderated by Jewellery Outlook Editor David Brough, is open to trade visitors at the Jewellery Show, Olympia, and will begin at 11.20 a.m. on Sunday, September 1, 2024.
