Around 200 jewellers representing 130 companies attended road-shows in Limerick and Dublin in the Republic and Belfast in Northern Ireland, where they enjoyed a complimentary buffet lunch and morning and afternoon tea and pastries.
Tony Obernik of jewellery group Fields said it was “great” that suppliers were there “supporting the Irish market,” while CW Sellors’s Chris Sellors said he was “extremely pleased with the response to this year’s collection.”
John Ball, the show’s organiser and sales director at Brown and Newirth Ltd, added: “We started by bringing over just 10 companies from the UK, but this year have included selected Irish, Scottish, Welsh, German and Italian suppliers, bringing the total to 25 and making the show more appealing to retailers.”
The organisers said they have already started planning for a “bigger and better 2012.” More information is available from www.irelandjewelleryshowcase.com.
