Hong Kong show invites East Coast manufacturers
July 21, 2008
Providence, R.I.—The organizer of the 2008
Hong Kong Jewellery and Watch Fair is offering to bring a select group of jewelry manufacturers from two East Coast states to the upcoming September fair.
Jewelry and jewelry-related companies (i.e., jewelry designers and companies that handle jewelry machinery, packaging, findings, etc.) from New York and Rhode Island—two major centers of the jewelry industry—are invited to attend the show.
Attendees must be first-time participants to the jewelry fairs of CMP Asia, organizer of the Hong Kong Jewellery and Watch Fair.
CMP Asia has offered the following incentives if the two states are able to recruit 10 companies: five nights free hotel stay in Hong Kong for each company, or a special inventive of $500; an invitation to the opening ceremony and fair reception; use of ClubElite lounges at the fairground; a complimentary fair directory; and free Airport Express train tickets between the Central/Kowloon station and the AsiaWorld-Expo station.
If you are interested in attending the Sept. 15-21 show and taking advantage of these incentives, contact Katherine Tufts at the Rhode Island Economic Development Corp. as soon as possible. Call (401) 278-9100 ext. 139 or e-mail ktufts@riedc.com.
