ASSOCIATION OF ARMENIAN JEWELERS ELECTS NEW EXECUTIVE BOARD
The press office of the Armenian Jewelers' Association informed that jewelry
exhibition and meetings of jewelers are being held in Basel, Switzerland,
every year. Armenian jewelers from many countries also participate in these
annual arrangements. Every two year, the delegation of the Armenian and
Diaspora Associations of Jewelers participate in the general assembly, also
electing a new international board for two years.
Gagik Mkrtchian, RA deputy trade and development minister, is an honored
guest of the assembly. The participants elected 13 members of the
international executive board in the course of the meeting. Ara Barmakian
(USA) was elected chairman of the board and Gagik Abrahamian (Armenia) was
elected deputy chairman. The board adopted the decision to transfer the
secretariat of the Association to the Eastern Coast of the United States.
Ara Barmakian, chairman of the board, explained this by the fact that over
3000 Armenian jewelers live in the United States, adding that the majority
of these jewelers have moved to there recently.
The aim of the association is to help Armenian jewelers to more clearly
realize the business relations and the world's jewelry market. Besides, they
will be rendered some support being consulted on certain issues.
Gagik Abrahamian, deputy chairman of the board, said that he will support
jewelers to enter the Russian market and develop business relations there,
increasing the rating of Armenia in the world's jewelry market. Mr.
Abrahamian also emphasized the importance of relations between Armenia and
Diaspora, stating that we need each other mutually.
