Commenting on the announcement of the much awaited Hyderabad Jewellery, Pearl and Gem Fair 2018,  Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, UBM India said, “The gems and jewellery industry is the backbone of the Indian economy, with India being one of the world’s fastest growing gem and jewellery markets and South India, the biggest market within it. The region has a privileged legacy in ornaments that will be showcased at the fair along with more contemporary trends of 2018. Among new consumers, there has been a paradigm shift in terms of preference for reputed brands within the organised market. Even established players are keen to accommodate this transformation by also providing value for money, eclectic light weight jewellery wherein earlier, they would not manufacture jewellery below a certain weight.”

“With its stronghold in the Indian market further fortified by its new jewellery shows in Mumbai and Chennai this year, UBM India is proud to play an especially significant role in the South. It generates insights and sales for the zone and helps build quality business relationships on a pan-Indian scale. Its endeavour through HJF 2018 is also to support the established and upcoming centers of excellence in jewellery in this region,” he further added.

Some of the renowned exhibitors who will participate this year include prominent names such as Anmol Jewellers, Swaroop Jewellers, Chintamani Gold, Sri Shubam Jewellers, Gupta Gold, Vinati Jewellers, JC Jewellers, KK Ornaments, Jewel Park, Shree Kalpataru Jewellers Pvt Ltd, Mukti Gold amongst others.
