Buyers CommentSatisfied with imports from India“We are regular buyers of

jewellery, garments and fashion

accessories from IFJAS. We

import from India, Thailand,

China, Indonesia and Nepal.

We are very satisfied with our

imports from India. We like the

colour, variety and range of

jewellery presented at IFJAS and are looking forward to

place orders soon.” Bucciarelli Gieussepe, Italy

Impressed by continuousinnovation“I am an e-retailer and

wholesaler dealing mainly

in jewellery, garments and

stoles. I source from India,

Latin America and South

Africa. I am a regular

visitor to EPCH fairs in India and buy in large

quantities as products I source from here are popular

in Spain. I am impressed by the continuous

innovation that I see in India, particularly at IFJAS

and especially like the fact that producers are willing

to experiment rather than stick to classical designs.”

Teresa Pastor, Spain

Perfect in all aspects“This visit was to

enhance the trade

relation between

India and Japan.

Mr. Kamiyaka is

responsible to

promote imports

from India in Japan

which is currently very less at 1% and wants

it to be at par with China which is at 75%.

The trade expo is promising not just for

increasing business but for also building

relations. He said that production is limited

in terms of fashion accessories but the variety

that is offered is very promising.”

Kamiyaka Yoshiaki, Japan Textiles Importers

Association, Japan

Seeking direct imports from India“I deal exclusively in blouses

and bead jewellery for my

200 stores. I am here to

explore new products. I

haven’t imported directly

from India as yet but have

bought Indian products from

Hong Kong Fashion Week. I

also buy from Columbia, Brazil and China.”

Carmen Flores, Chile

Looking for unconventional“I like my visit here

but I am also

looking for

s o m e t h i n g

unconventional. I

wish to combine

Indian jewellery

with beachwear. I

have bought blouses from Indian manufacturers

on earlier occasions. This time I am here to

expand my product base and place orders for

jewellery, garments, beads and some ethnic beach

wear.” Andre Vera Gil, Chile

Broadening product base“I deal in home textiles, viz. towels, bed sheets and kitchen

textiles. While 40% of my

imports are from India, rest

is from China and Indonesia.

I observe that the real

competition among Indian

artisans lies in whoever can

offer superior quality. Due to

a demand in my market I am

here to buy jewellery in horn & bone material combined

with jewels and more flower based accessories.”

Wybo, Belgium

Bangles fromIndia“I am a retailer dealing in

bangles and importing 100%

from India. This is my 5th visit

to IFJAS and I am planning

to include sourcing of scarves

as well. This time there are artisans and other craft

cluster exhibitors as well but we as always seek our

regular suppliers.” Kelsey Hutcher and Lauren, USA

Good atmosphere“I am here with my sister,

looking for manufacturers. We

are interested in textile bags

and jewellery. We are very

pleased with the ambience.

We’ve been doing business

with exporters from Jaipur on a small scale but this is

our first visit to IFJAS. We are looking for more of

patterns and designs. Alternatively, we import from Italy

and Indonesia. Frances, Australia

Printed scarves best in India“ I have shops in Beijing and Shanghai apart from Canada.

I feel that the quality of products here is at par to that in

Canada and designs are modern and beautiful. I also liked

the handicraft products brought by the artisans. I buy

printed scarves only from India as they are the very best.

I also import from China, with India accounting for the

entire share in my scarves line. I am very impressed with

the arrangements and humbled by the hospitality here.” Naila Juma, Canada

Here for Spring SummerCollections“I am interested in jewellery, bags and stoles

and am happy with

the design and

material used here.

The quality is

variable though. I

am here for

traditional Indian

products, for

contemporary ones I prefer China. I import

mainly for my Spring and Summer collections

from India. Exhibitors have improved the

quality of products over the past 5 years.”

Kiyohito Fujisawa, Japan

jewellery of all

sorts – rings,

e a r r i n g s ,

n e c k l a c e s ,

bracelets, etc. A

buying agency. I look forward to my next

visit to this fair.”

Brigid Rosemary MacLaughlin, Australia

Like the innovation available in

India“My company with

branches in Qingdao,

China and Hanoi,

Vietnam, deals in

Dear Patrons,

In this 8th editionof IFJAS, thepositive step tobring in theprimary producersin our loop, hasbeen very effectiveand useful across

the value chain, from the producer tothe buyer. When the buyer visits theprimary produces – many of whom arefrom remote areas, both parties realizethe importance of the exporters whobridge the gaps between the buyer’sexpectations and the primary producers’capabilities.

I thank all our valuable patrons andcongratulate them for the progressivebusiness conducted. I also invite all ourbuyer friends to visit us again for the bigshow - IHGF Delhi Fair, Autumn 2015,scheduled from 14-18 October 2015.

care goes in to create innovative patterns. He, asa regular exhibitor, observes that the business hasbeen slow over the past three years as comparedto the initial few years. He also observes that themarket has changed due to changes in theeconomy of European countries, especially afterthe recession. This has made buyers more product-specific and hence the exporters have changedtheir game too. This also means that there arebuyers who have come to get a sense of thetrends in the market, after which they approachtheir favourite manufacturers to create the sameproduct. This has affected smaller businessmenand wholesalers. Added to this is the stiffcompetition that China provides. ThoughChinese products cannot compete with Indianproducts in terms of quality and design, theymake it up for that because of competitive pricingand the ability to deliver bulk orders. He is hopingto receive more business as the show closes andover the next few days. He also looks forward toIHGF Delhi Fair-Autumn that is due in October.

Another exhibitor shares that their products havebeen internationally showcased at fairs in Japanand Hong Kong and have been well received.Products include beaded bags in all kinds andshapes. They hire designers from both India andItaly as their importers majorlyare fromE u r o p e a ncountries. Theyalso mentionedthat the designs area lot of timesinspired bymagazines and trendstories. The materialused by this exhibitoris glass beads, plastics,sequins, canvas and silk.

A Mumbai basedexhibitor who is also adesigner has put ondisplay a range in high-endjewellery. He says, “nowboth domestic and

international market isready to buy expensive jewellery which is basedmore on design rather on the precious metal.So, the increased spending habit and purchasingcapacity of the upper middle class (in India aswell) is now served with traditionally crafted andmodernly deigned items.” All their pieces arehandmade and few embedded with semi-precious stones. The target customers for theexhibitor were the boutique customers. She saidthat visiting buyers this time want to see morevariety in terms of raw materials.
