    GJEPC along with the Embassy of India in Guatemala successfully conducted a hybrid Buyer-Seller Meet (BSM) to promote Indian gems and jewellery in the Central American market. The event held on 24th June was graced by His Excellency Dr. Manoj Kumar Mohapatra, Ambassador of India to Guatemala, who delivered the welcome address, and Mr. Ramesh C. Khulbey, Head of Chancery and Second Secretary (Political, Press & Information) at the Embassy of India in Guatemala City, who introduced the Guatemalan panellists.

     

    The BSM uncovered opportunities for strengthening economic ties between India and the region and further growing the bilateral trade relationship with immense potential in the gems and jewellery sector.

     

    The event was attended by key members of the Guatemalan jewellery retail sector and representing the Council were Mr. Vipul Shah, Chairman, GJEPC; Mr. Shailesh Sangani, Member, National Exhibitions Sub-committee, GJEPC; and Mr. Sabyasachi Ray, Executive Director, GJEPC. The BSM also witnessed strong participation from leading Indian gem and jewellery manufacturers-cum-exporters, who are keen to expand business ties in the region.

     

    In his remarks, Mr. Vipul Shah said, “Today’s event marks a significant step in our journey towards strengthening trade relationships with Central America. This hybrid Buyer-Seller Meet is not just an opportunity to showcase our products but also a platform for us to understand your markets, preferences, and needs firsthand. It is the beginning of what we envision to be a prosperous and enduring partnership.”

     

    A key point raised during the interaction was Guatemala’s proximity to the Northern Triangle, positioning the country as a strategic gateway for Indian gems and jewellery into Central America.
