(PRESS RELEASE) MJSA Expo — the industry’s longest-running trade show dedicated to all aspects of professional jewelry making and design—will return March 5–7, 2023, to the Javits Center in New York City. Expo will occupy the glass-enclosed River Pavilion (which overlooks the Hudson River) and will once again run simultaneously with the JA New York retail show. Both shows will honor the other’s badges, creating easy access for qualified buyers.

Presented by MJSA, the U.S. trade alliance for professional jewelry manufacturers, designers, and trade suppliers, Expo will once again feature the latest in jewelry-making tools, technologies, supplies, and services. It will also present a series of MJSA Journal LIVE educational sessions, featuring industry experts who regularly contribute to MJSA’s award-winning monthly magazine.

“Expo came back strongly in 2022—exhibitors described attendees as ‘hungry to see everything in person’ and ‘ready to buy,'” says MJSA President/CEO David. W. Cochran. “We’re looking forward to continuing that momentum in 2023.”

Looking for a Seamless Sale? Call Wilkerson

After almost 60 years in business, Breakiron Jewelers in Erie, Pennsylvania, was closing its doors. And the store’s owner, Linda Breakiron, was ready for it. She had run the store as its sole owner since the beginning of the millennium and was looking forward to a change. Of course, she called Wilkerson. Breakiron talked to other jewelers who had used Wilkerson and was satisfied with their response. “They always had positive feedback,” she recalls. With the sales, marketing and even additional inventory that Wilkerson provided, Breakiron insists she could never have accomplished her going-out-of-business sale without Wilkerson’s help. She’s now ready for the journey ahead, but looking back, she’d be sure to recommend Wilkerson. “They just made the whole process very seamless.”
