(PRESS RELEASE) BANGKOK — Department of International Trade Promotion (DITP), Thailand Ministry of Commerce and its affiliates have been carefully monitoring the development of the global community efforts to diminish the COVID-19 situation in the past months. Although Thailand can control the outbreak so effectively that there is no local infection in the past two months, the health and safety of industry stakeholders are always the priority. DITP has decided to reschedule the 66th BGJF to 23-27 February 2021 promoting the same theme: “Thailand’s Magic Hands: The Spirit of Jewelry Making.”

DITP is indebted to overwhelming supports the global Gems and Jewelry industry community has shown to BGJF for over three decades. We believe new opportunities will emerge and the business will thrive when all industry players meet again.

In the meantime, DITP is now working closely with partners to come up with “BGJF Special Edition – On Ground to Online Exhibition” which will be launched on 2-4 November 2020. The primary objective of this online platform is to virtually continue the legacy of BGJF as world’s leading Gems and Jewelry meeting point showcasing refined craftsmanship of Thailand.

Retiring? Let Wilkerson Do the Heavy Lifting

Retirement can be a great part of life. As Nanji Singadia puts it, “I want to retire and enjoy my life. I’m 78 now and I just want to take a break.” That said, Nanji decided that the best way to move ahead was to contact the experts at Wilkerson. He chose them because he knew that closing a store is a heavy lift. To maximize sales and move on to the next, best chapter of his life, he called Wilkerson—but not before asking his industry friends for their opinion. He found that Wilkerson was the company most recommended and says their professionalism, experience and the homework they did before the launch all helped to make his going out of business sale a success. “Wilkerson were working on the sale a month it took place,” he says. “They did a great job.”
