The show, which historically has taken place in April, was originally moved to March due to venue scheduling restrictions from ongoing renovation work at the Miami Beach Convention Center.

Fortunately, the projects that were present when the show was moved to March have been completed, and JIS is now able to shift dates back to the usual April Show pattern.

“The opportunity to move the dates of the show back to mid-April is a big win for attendees and exhibitors,” said Jordan Tuchband, industry vice president of JIS Shows.

“The new dates are much more ideal for seasonal Mother’s Day buying, will significantly lower travel expenses, and increase the diversity of product available for purchase on the show floor.”

The JIS April Show allows the jewelry industry an easy-to-shop buying event to restock after early-year sales and prepare for the summer selling season with the latest trends. Visit jisshow.com or call +1 (800) 840-5612 for more information on attending or exhibiting.

Windsor Jewelers: Building for Tomorrow with Wilkerson

After 43 years in the jewelry industry, Windsor Jewelers' President Rob Simon knows the value of trusted partnerships. When planning a store expansion in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, he turned to Wilkerson to transform existing inventory into construction capital. "There have been very few companies I've dealt with that I totally trust," Simon shares. "Wilkerson understands their success is 100% based on your success." The partnership enabled Windsor to fund new showcases and construction while maintaining their position as their community's premier jeweler. For Simon, the choice was clear: "Over the years, I've been abused in every direction there is by different people in this industry, so I know what to avoid. One company not to avoid is Wilkerson."
