The Bangladesh Jewellers’ Association (BAJUS) is poised to host an international exhibition of jewellery machinery at the International Convention City Bashundhara (ICCB) in the capital in the first week of July.
The exhibition titled “International Jewellery Machinery Exhibition-2024” will begin on 4 July and continue till 6 July and will be themed around technology integration in jewellery.

“To successfully implement Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s Vision-2041, BAJUS President Sayem Sobhan Anvir has initiated the country’s first of its kind exhibition,” organisers told a press conference held at Bashundhara City Shopping Complex in the capital recently.

Central leaders of BAJUS and international partners of the exhibition briefed the media on the forthcoming event during the press conference.
BAJUS General Secretary Badal Chandra Roy, former president Dilip Kumar Roy, Vice-President Samit Ghosh Apu, Adviser Ruhul Amin Rasel and KNC Services Founder and CEO Kranti Nagvekar were present at the briefing.

This pioneering event aims to enhance the domestic industry and explore the export potential of Bangladeshi jewellery in the global market.
Over 30 companies from 10 countries, including India, Italy, Turkey, the UAE, Germany, China, and Thailand, will showcase jewellery machinery at the exhibition.
BAJUS officials expect that displaying modern machinery from various countries will inspire entrepreneurs to establish new jewellery factories in Bangladesh.

Participating from India are six companies: Tishya CNC Engineering Works, Neo Instruments, Solanki Mechanic Works, Era Corporation, Quantum Equipment and AccJet Solutions.
From Italy, three companies are participating: JTE, Fasti & Omper. From Turkey, three companies will exhibit: Otek, Ortek, and Guvenis Jewellery Mold & Machine. Fischer from Germany and Do IT Industries from China will participate.

Five organisations from Bangladesh will participate: Dreams Instrument Technology, Bangladesh Scientific Instrument Company, Expert Instruments, Trust and Rarts BD.
Organisers are hopeful that the exhibition will foster industry development and open export opportunities, helping to revive the country’s traditional gold industry. The expo arena will be open to all from 11am to 7pm each day of the event.
