SHARJAH, 24th March, 2022 (WAM) -- In a bid to accommodate the massive turnout of visitors to the Watch & Jewellery Middle East Show (WJMES), and at the request of exhibitors, the Expo Centre Sharjah has extended the working hours of the event on Saturday and Sunday to be from 12:00 until 22:00.

Organised by the Expo Centre Sharjah, with the support of the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry, WJMES saw a high turnout of visitors during the first days of its opening, achieving a high volume of sales that exceeded exhibitors' expectations.

The five-day event hosts over 300 leading local and international jewellery companies and brands from 20 countries.

'The decision to extend the working hours of the exhibition was at the request of exhibiting companies and to accommodate the heavy turnout of visitors, which is yet another testament to the continued success of the event at all levels,' said Saif Mohammed Al Midfa, CEO of Expo Centre Sharjah.

He also pointed out that WJMES has contributed to revitalising the gold trade locally and regionally and supporting business owners and workers in this industry. It also provided an opportunity for gold lovers to explore the finest jewellery, hottest trends, latest products, special deals and accessories at very competitive prices.
