JA Roundtable to Examine Shift to Ethical Trading
May 15, 08
Marketing, customer management and jewelry trend spotting will be among the topics that Jewelers of America’s J-Biz Education Track Initiative will present during a full-day seminar at JCK Las Vegas, on Thursday, May 29.
JCK Las Vegas has also invited JA to chair an executive roundtable on Saturday morning, May 31, entitled “Retailer-Supplier Relationships: Changing Expectations.”
“We are committed to helping jewelers thrive during 2008,” says JA President and CEO Matthew A. Runci. “Our seminars and programs during JCK Las Vegas address topics that will help jewelers reshape their images and market their store brands in ways that will attract 21st century consumers.”
The executive roundtable will discuss how retailers have moved beyond simply asking suppliers for the best price, to asking suppliers a variety of legal, ethical, social and environmental questions.
