JIS Spring Show expands

(NORWALK, Conn.) – JIS Spring, taking place from March 13-15, 2022 at the Miami Beach Convention Center, Miami Beach, FL is excited to welcome over 320 exhibitors and domestic and international attendees in a larger show floor spanning nearly 62,000 square feet over four pavilions: Silver & Fashion, Fine Jewelry, The Galleria and the recently announced all-new Turkish Jewelry Pavilion. As a premier event to restock and reconnect with the industry for the upcoming spring and summer selling seasons, the show has nearly doubled in size over last year’s spring event.

“With international travel continuing to open up since 2021, we are beyond pleased to announce we have a 48% increase in store-front registration from Latin America and a 50% increase from the Caribbean region, and our overall attendance registration is pacing strong – exceeding last year’s growth of 11% so far,” states Lauren Van Rensburg, Marketing Director of JIS Events. “Our retail buyers have reported very strong Valentine’s Day sales and are in need of new products and restocking. JIS is well-timed for the buying cycles of the seasons to provide retailers with the convenience to choose between immediate delivery of purchases right on the show floor allowing for instant stock and resale in stores or placing orders for future shipment.”

The spring edition products will feature a wide assortment of offerings including bridal, diamond and classic fine jewelry as well as gold jewelry and chains, pearl jewelry, watches, loose diamonds, gemstones, silver and fashion jewelry, antique and estate, equipment and supplies, accessories and more.

New to JIS Spring is the Product Showcase Lounge, an upscale and comfortable area with light refreshments and product showcases highlighting new products, collections and trends from exhibitors that can be found on the show floor.

In addition to product sourcing and buying opportunities, JIS will host an educational presentation by Tiffany Bayley, a renowned entrepreneur, author, motivational speaker and coach. She will present on how investing only 2-3 hours per week could increase revenue by 25% annually in a session titled, “The Path to Profit with Facebook Live!” The session will take place on Sunday, March 13th at noon ET.

Registration is now open to all qualified buyers and trade professionals. Register here.
