Jewellery Fair, held from 8 to 12 September 2026 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center in Bangkok, with a Sri Lankan Pavilion comprising 72 booths.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The increased participation provided a valuable platform for Sri Lankan gem and jewellery exporters to showcase their products, establish business connections, and explore new opportunities in Thailand and international markets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Embassy of Sri Lanka in Bangkok coordinated and facilitated Sri Lanka\u2019s participation in the Fair, in collaboration with relevant Thai authorities. The Sri Lankan Pavilion was inaugurated by Ambassador of Sri Lanka to Thailand, Wijayanthi Edirisinghe, marking the official commencement of Sri Lanka\u2019s participation at the exhibition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Thailand remains Sri Lanka\u2019s leading export destination for precious and semi-precious stones, accounting for more than 50 per cent of Sri Lanka\u2019s exports in this sector. Sri Lanka\u2019s participation in the Fair therefore holds particular significance in strengthening bilateral trade relations and expanding market opportunities for Sri Lankan exporters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The expanded presence at the Fair reflects the continued efforts to promote Sri Lanka\u2019s gem and jewellery sector, deepen trade and investment relations between Sri Lanka and Thailand, and support Sri Lankan businesses in accessing international markets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Bangkok Gems &amp; Jewellery Fair is one of the world\u2019s leading international trade exhibitions for the gem and jewellery industry, bringing together manufacturers, exporters, buyers, and industry professionals from across the globe. Sri Lanka\u2019s participation further reinforced its engagement with the international gem and jewellery trade and highlighted the country\u2019s reputation for high-quality gemstones and jewellery.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>Embassy of Sri Lanka<\/b><span class=\"s1\"><br \/><\/span><b>Bangkok<\/b><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>11 September 2026<\/b><b><\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=&#8221;38167,38159,38155,38151,38147,38143&#8243;
