Two grand halls of Expo Centre Sharjah, measuring over 8,000 square metres, will host over 200 exhibitors from 20 countries participating in what is often known as the most exclusive and majestic watch and jewellery event in the Middle East. Hong Kong, Taiwan, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, Bahrain, Pakistan, Turkey, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and the UAE.
With every passing edition, the MidEast Watch and Jewellery Show has been growing in terms of participation, exhibition space, visitors, as well as show profile. It is therefore no surprise that more and more global jewellery brands are keen to take advantage of the event’s popularity and utilise it as a platform for spreading their wings across the Middle East region, the organisers said.
Other than individual participants, several countries will also make their presence felt at the Show through national pavilions. Of these, the Hong Kong pavilion, with 47 exhibitors will not only be the biggest in size among pavilions but will also have a new look in terms of design. Jordan too will have a grand pavilion with double the number of exhibitors and bigger space compared to the last show.
The Indian pavilion, always an attraction for its stunning gem stone fine jewellery sets, will have twice the number of exhibitors over the last edition. With exquisite jewellery designs and collections from across the country, the India pavilion will continue to be one of the favourites with visitors this time as well.
The coming edition of the MidEast Watch and Jewellery Show will have a mixed display of loose pearls, diamonds, precious stones, gold jewellery, diamond and pearl sets, crystals, watches, timepieces, jewellery displays, and different kinds of tools used in the trade, but the focus will be on fine diamond jewellery.
