The Gem and Jewellery Export Promotion Council has reached out to Howrah’s jewellery sector and held two industry events in the West Bengal city. The traders’ body is keen to boost exports from Kolkata’s neighbour and aims to tap into numerous growth opportunities.
The GJEPC held two workshops on ‘How to Export Gems and Jewellery’ in Howrah on July 30, the traders’ body announced on its website. The GJEPC’s main aim was to share knowledge to equip the area’s jewellery businesses with the tools they need to tap into the growth opportunities presented by the global jewellery market.
The first of the workshops was held at the Ankurhati Gems and Jewellery Park’s Export Facilitation Centre in partnership with the Ankurhati Gems and Jewellery Manufacturing Welfare Association. The second event was held at the Panchayat Office of BDO in Domjur in collaboration with Howrah’s District Industries Centre as part of the ongoing ‘Cluster Development’ program.
“Both events focused on educating local stakeholders about the intricacies of exporting gems and jewellery products, with a special emphasis on e-commerce,” announced the GJEPC on its website. “Howrah, designated as a One District One Product [ODOP] hub for the sector, presents immense potential for export growth.”
Both workshops were attended by approximately 75 jewellery industry professionals and Yes Bank’s Raghvendra Pandey took the occasions to share insights on how export schemes can offer financial assistance towards raw materials. India Post’s Dak Niryaat Kendra also shared information on how to export via postal services and the GJEPC’s representatives shared insights on export markets, e-commerce procedures, and documents required to begin exporting.
