Craig and Lee discuss Craig’s recent talk at the Canadian Jewellers Association Summit in Vancouver. They delve into emerging trends in the Canadian jewellery industry, including the growing presence of luxury brands and the shift towards direct-to-consumer retail.

They also consider the impact of a potential recession on consumer sentiment, particularly among the wealthy. The discussion emphasizes the significance of creating a captivating in-store environment for jewellery retailers, as high-end jewellery purchases often involve a curated and immersive experience. Furthermore, they touch upon the changing dynamics of Chinese tour groups and how their absence, due to geopolitical reasons, affects the retail landscape in Canada.
