Jewellery Focus is proud to announce that it has become an official Supporter of the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC), aligning its commitment to transparent business endeavours with the RJC's mission to advance ethical practices throughout the jewellery supply chain, from mine to retail.

"We are delighted to announce Jewellery Focus as a Supporter of the RJC. Jewellery Focus joins institutions such as IDEX Online, Collection Pan-Arab Luxury Magazine, BASELWORLD, JCK Events, IJL, Brink's Global Services, Compagnie Financière Richemont SA and ABN AMRO as valued RJC Supporters, as well as more than 330 companies and trade associations in the Council's growing membership," said Michael Rae, RJC's chief executive officer.

"Though applying ethical standards across the entire industry is a huge task, each time someone joins the fight we take a step towards making it a reality. I hope that we will see more progress during 2012, through determination, innovation and collaboration, but with sensitivity and careful consideration of the surrounding issues," added Louise Hoffman, editor of Jewellery Focus.
