The JNA Awards and the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) have teamed up anew for JNA Awards 2019 to promote responsible business practices in the international jewellery industry. 

Armed with their shared values and vision for the trade, the collaboration, first established in 2018, fosters best practices and responsible behaviour across the jewellery supply chain, ultimately leading to long-term industry advancement.

Since its inception in 2012, the JNA Awards has been striving to identify, recognise, celebrate and encourage excellence, best practices and innovation in the international jewellery and gemstone industry. A leading platform for companies to showcase their outstanding achievements, as well as their commitment to innovation and responsibility, the JNA Awards is now accepting entries for its eighth edition until April 26, 2019.

The RJC is the jewellery industry’s foremost standards-setting and certification body, with more than 1,100 member companies spanning the entire jewellery supply chain, from mine to retail, across 75 countries. Its mission is to promote responsible and safe business practices within the industry and help firms of all sizes meet rising ethical standards, while creating jobs and opportunities globally.

JNA Awards 2019 is supported by Headline Partners Chow Tai Fook, the Shanghai Diamond Exchange, and DANAT, together with Honoured Partners KGK Group, China Gems and Jade Exchange, and Guangdong Land Holdings Ltd.

The Honourees or shortlisted entrants will be announced on June 20, 2019 at the June Hong Kong Jewellery & Gem Fair.
