DDC to Host Diamond Expo for Retailers, Wholesalers

The New York Diamond Dealers Club (DDC) is to stage Diamond Expo 2005 on September 18-19, an event aimed at providing retailers with key information and guidance on how to increase diamond sales and profits, as well as staying ahead of the competition.

The event will feature a selection of loose diamonds and colored stones at the DDC’s 25,000 square foot trading floor.

Sponsored by the International Gemological Institute (IGI), the Diamond Expo will also provide a wide range of seminars designed to help retailers increase profits and diamond sales.

Speakers from the IGI and other organizations will address topics such as how to successfully market fancy color diamonds, how to beat the competition and win diamond sales, and how to turn a web site into a powerful marketing tool.

Jacob Banda, president of the DDC said, “The Diamond Expo is a very exciting event for wholesalers and retailers to come together on the DDC’s diamond trading floor. We have an exciting selection of diamonds and colored stones from premier wholesalers and manufacturers and a dynamic range of seminars for retailers.
