The India International Jewellery Show (IIJS) 2004 will be held July 15 – 19. Organizers expect approximately 900 exhibitors both from India and abroad to participate in the show being held at Godrej Complex in Mumbai.

Launched by The Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) in 1985, IIJS has grown into an increasingly important international event, one of the largest in Asia, especially after being relaunched as a “trade only” show in 2001. For this year’s show a team of professional designers have created a new layout for the show to give it a new look.

Overseas trade visitors to IIJS 2004 will be offered:

* Two-night/three-day free stay at the official Hotel (open on first come first serve basis).
* Free entry & shuttle service to exhibition venue from the official hotel.
* Factory visits on request.
* Free entry passes to the annual fashion show where the country’s best-known models will display the trendiest jewelry designs.
* Airport pick up and drop off.
* Cultural shows.
* Educational seminars addressed by well-known speakers and experts from various international organizations.

IIJS 2004 will include various types of diamond, coloured gemstones, and a variety of jewelry in different styles & designs—from elegant machine-made pieces to one-of-a-kind creations—in a variety of colors, and a range of modern and traditional designs.

India is emerging as a major player in the International jewelry market by offering jewelry of all hues and colours, which reflects the latest styles and designs prevalent in the today’s world market.
