China International Gold, Jewellery & Gem Fair- Shenzhen

2012 marks a decade of sparkle for the China International Gold, Jewellery & Gem Fair – Shenzhen (UBM ’s Shenzhen Fair). Since opening its doors in 2003, the Shenzhen Fair has become the most important jewellery fair in Southern China, thanks to the rich and professional experience of fair organiser, the UBM Group, and the support of the China Gold Association. For the past 10 years and counting, gem and jewellery traders have relied on the Fair to provide them with an all-in-one platform to buy and sell merchandise, expand their networks and update themselves with the latest market intelligence.

The 10th edition of the China International Gold, Jewellery & Gem Fair – Shenzhen will be held from 10 to 13 Feb 2011 at the Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center. .

The Perfect Time, The Perfect Place

Thousands of jewellers from around the world gather in Asia in early spring to make their early merchandising
activities. The timing of UBM ’s Shenzhen Fair makes it an ideal platform to replenish their stock after Christmas and
the Chinese Spring Festival. In the vicinity of Hong Kong gives Shenzhen a big factor behind its development into China ’s leading jewellery manufacturing, processing and trading centre. Today, the city accounts for over 70% of China ’s
jewellery production.

Seize the Opportunities in the China Market

With the rise in personal income also came the rise in the standard of living among the mainland Chinese population;
hence, consumer desire for luxury products, including jewellery, has also strengthened. The Fair will put you in direct
contact with these wealthy Chinese who consider investing in jewellery as a way of preserving wealth. You will also be in
touch with jewellery distributors, franchisees and retailers.

Notes for foreign exhibitors and visitors

	Please remember that a travel visa is needed for all overseas visitors to mainland China. Visas should be obtained at the Chinese visa office in your own country prior to departure.
	For exhibitors, please work with  UBM Asia's Hong Kong office and its appointed freight forwarder to simplify the import/export arrangements with the Shenzhen customs authorities.
	For visiting trade buyers, it is possible to visit the Fair for one day as the journey time to Shenzhen is only 35 minutes by train, or 45 minutes by bus. However,  UBM Asia  can recommend hotels to stay if you want to spend more time at the Fair to investigate more fully the potential of mainland Chinese suppliers. The Group will also recommend local translators to help you.
