Miami Beach, Fla.--The Jewelers International Showcase (JIS) held its annual Spring Show at the Miami Beach Convention Center last month, with organizers noting a slight decrease in both show size and buyer attendance.

Yet despite lower attendance figures, show organizers said buyers were serious about inventory, and exhibitors were busy writing orders for shipment after the show.

JIS' next event, the October Show, is traditionally its largest and most well-attended show, with organizers anticipating 1,500 booths and 4,000 buying firms, or 12,000 attendees, for the upcoming edition, to be held from Oct. 1-5 at the Miami Beach Convention Center.

In terms of the buying firms, about 50 percent normally hail from Florida, with 35 percent from the Caribbean and Latin America, and 15 percent from other U.S. states.

For additional exhibitor and buyer information, call (561) 998-0205, e-mail jisshow@aol.com or visit JIS' Web site, JISShow.com.
