The Israeli Diamond Industry will have 65 Israeli companies participating at the upcoming JCK Show ~ Las Vegas June 1 – 5. The United States accounts for the largest portion of Israel’s total polished diamond exports, reaching $4 billion out of a total of $6.6 billion in 2006, making this show one of the most important events for the industry, Israel Diamond Institute said in a statement.

“All of the Israeli exhibitors have invested huge efforts in preparing for the show and they all have wonderful collections to show,” said IDI chairman Moti Ganz. “Our industry is renowned for its creativity and innovation and I’m sure that will be evident at the show.”

He added, “The U.S. is our major market—every second gem-quality diamond sold in the U.S. is an Israeli diamond—and there is no doubt that JCK Las Vegas is the most important annual show in America.”

IDI will again host a large Israel Diamond Pavilion at Level One on International Drive, with 35 Israeli manufacturers and exporters exhibiting. In addition there will be 30 Israeli companies exhibiting throughout the show.

IDI will have two-fold representation at JCK with stand 50118 within the Pavilion, and stand 5049 on the upper level.
