Mikimoto Pearls To Cater For Growing Chinese Market - 3/6/10


Chinese consumer spending has always revolved around a current thread, whereby consumers relate to brands through heritage, rarity and quality. China’s jewellery market is at the forefront of this trend, and is expected to top $33 billion soon, over that of the US market.

Japanese company Mikimoto Pearls has cleverly switched into this growing market in China. Mikimoto were the first to create cultured pearls in 1893, and now cater for royal families and celebrities. Their prestige, rarity and fine heritage make Mikimoto the perfect partner for China’s increasing jewellery market.

As we have seen recently Paspaley Pearls have been catered to the Chinese market through Hong Kong. It’s clear, as with Mikimoto that the Chinese consumer aspires to purchase from such luxury brands, and they feel validated doing so.
