Istanbul’s Rosy Spring
The Istanbul Jewelry Show recorded a positive edition with +8% visitors and a turnover of 80% of the domestic market
The +8% increase in international visitors compared to the March 2023 edition would be enough to sum up the four days of the Istanbul Jewelry Show, proving the ever-increasing appeal of the Turkish exhibition, the only local B2B event, that is now among the top 5 on the international scene. However, the other numbers are also worth mentioning since they give a picture of a constantly growing sector: over 1,500 companies from 16 countries and more than 30,000 visitors from 139 nations distributed over an area of 70,000 m2. To be more specific, IJS saw a 180% increase in the number of visitors from the Far East countries, 68% from Northern Europe, 64% from Central Asia, 63% from South-East Asia, 47% from the Pacific Rim, 32% from North Asia and 30% from Southern Europe.
