AGTA GemFair Las Vegas will continue to have a home at JCK.
The American Gem Trade Association (AGTA) and JCK have announced a three-year extension to their partnership. The agreement, AGTA says, keeps AGTA GemFair Las Vegas at the JCK show until at least 2025.
“This is exciting news for AGTA and our members,” says the association’s president, Kimberly Collins. “We have been working with JCK over the past few months to bring all our members back under the GemFair umbrella starting in 2023. We want to thank Sarin Bachmann, group vice-president of RX Jewelry Group, and the entire JCK team for working with us to develop a contract that allows us to do that.”
While AGTA had been a part of the JCK shows for prior years, the AGTA GemFair Las Vegas show started at the Venetian Hotel, the association reports.
“We’ve been in several locations in Las Vegas, with JCK and without,” Collins says. “We’ve learned that being an anchor at the JCK show is the right fit for AGTA members and allows us to provide a unique shopping experience for JCK buyers.”
“We are thrilled to bring an important partner such as AGTA back into the fold with an expanded long-term commitment,” Bachmann adds. “We received great feedback on having AGTA back at JCK and are excited to let the industry know it can count on finding AGTA at JCK in Las Vegas for many more years ahead.”
