Fascts and Figures
The number of visitors was on the same level as last year and business in exhibitors' booths was brisk despite the fact that number of exhibitors was down because of of the global recession. Due to the positive result of the show the rate of exhibitor re-booking for next year's exhibion was very strong.

Exhibitor Comments
- The quality of visitors was as good as always. There are some buyers that we only meet in JJF but not in any other exhibitons. The average customer spend in JJF is much higher than that in other exhibitions.
- In previous years we used JJF to sell down our inventories of stock but this year we used JJF to introduce a new range of products. The result was a great success and we are sure to take part in the fair again next year.
- We got many inquiries from major jewellery companies who have chain shops all over Japan as well as big department stores. We will definitely exhibit again in 2010.
- We sold much more than that we did in 2008. There were a lot of visitors from throughout Japan and we got big orders even from the new clients.
- We found that this year was much better than last year. We exhibited finished pearl jewellery and are expecting to receive several large orders as a result of this exhibition.
- We are very happy that we exhibited in JJF this September since this is the season when retailers are actively purchasing products for Christmas & New Year.
