MJSA Expo West Returns to AGTA GemFair Tucson

MJSA and the American Gem Trade Association (AGTA) announced that MJSA's EXPO West will be returning to the AGTA GemFair Tucson, Feb. 2-7, 2010. The EXPO West Pavilion will be housed in the Ballroom on the Galleria level, along with the Spectrum of Design Pavilion. Exhibitors will feature manufacturing equipment, tools, supplies, contract services, and the latest in new technologies. The pavilion will also include MJSA's At the Bench Live, a series of bench demonstrations showing the latest techniques for bench jewelers. "Many of our GemFair attendees are manufacturing jewelers," said Douglas K. Hucker, CEO of AGTA. "So, it is important to ensure that they have products and services available at the show and live demonstrations to help them work more efficiently." "We are delighted to have EXPO West return to the AGTA GemFair Tucson," said David Cochran, President and CEO of MJSA. "It's an important venue for our members in that region, and we look forward to further developing it and expanding the rich blend of tools, technology and information available for manufacturing jewelers there."
