It will feature more than 250 booths.
(Press Release) Jewelry manufacturers, retailers and other industry professionals will come together for the launch of a new event August in Columbus, OH. The New Horizons Jewelry Show is the only show serving the Midwest and will feature more than 250 booths of well-known jewelry manufacturers and service providers.
Retailers from across the country are invited to learn of the latest trends, what’s new and hot in jewelry, and prepare themselves to make the most of the upcoming holiday selling season with a unique education program focusing on sales and marketing.
“We all know, you cannot continue to do the same thing you did last year and expect to grow,” said Jim Reed, New Horizons president and show director. “You need to continuously look at the road ahead to see the challenges and opportunities that are over the horizon.”
Reed has been managing trade shows for over 33 years, 23 of those being in the jewelry industry, including the development of the JCK Show in Las Vegas and The SMART Jewelry Show in Chicago. Reed says the New Horizons Jewelry Show exhibitors and education program will prepare retailers for the challenges coming down the road and position them to take advantage of the opportunities that lie ahead.

Family Legacy, New Chapter: How Wilkerson Turns 89 Years of History Into Future Success
After 89 years of serving the Albany community, Harold Finkle Your Jeweler faced a pivotal decision. For third-generation owner Justin Finkle, the demanding hours of running a small business were taking precious time away from his young family. "After 23 years, I decided this was the time for me," Finkle explains. But closing a business with nearly nine decades of inventory and customer relationships isn't something easily managed alone.
Wilkerson's comprehensive approach transformed this challenging transition into a remarkable success story. Their strategic planning handled everything from advertising and social media to inventory management and staffing — elements that would overwhelm most jewelers attempting to navigate a closing sale independently.
The results speak volumes. "Wilkerson gave us three different tiers of potential goals," Finkle notes. "We've reached that third tier, that highest goal already, and we still have two weeks left of the sale." The partnership didn't just meet financial objectives—it exceeded them ahead of schedule.
