This is a veteran
diamond dealing firm.
During 2010 and
2011 local diamond companies have been recovering from one of the worst depressions
in the global diamond sector due to the severe economic crisis in global
markets that erupted in September 2008. The diamond sector experienced almost
an entire freeze and collapse in sales of about 70% in the peak of the crisis
and 2009 export diamonds shrank by some 40%. Only since mid
According to the
President of the Israeli Diamonds Association, local diamond sector in general
managed to cross the crisis, despite the sheer difficulties, including the fact
that local banks contracted credit given to local diamond firms. The President
said that trade in the sector rolls annual turnover of US$ 25 billion while
total debt to the banks stands on US$ 1.5 billion, down from US$ 2.4 billion in
the eve of the crisis. The Ministry for Industry & Trade also assisted the
local diamond exporters by providing bank guarantees in total scope of NIS 1
billion.
Overall in 2010,
export (net) of polished diamonds was US$ 5,832 million, representing 48% increase
from 2009 (when it noted 37% decrease from 2008, also much less than
In the 1st
quarter of 2011, 45.7% increase was noted comparing to the parallel period in
2010 with export of polished diamonds of US$2,123 million. Export of rough diamonds
also noted 39.6% rise, reaching US$ 1,158 million.
Import of rough
diamonds (net) in 2010 grew by 51% to US$ 3,755 million (30% rise in karat
terms) compared with 2009, and by 24.9% in 2011 1stQ (compared to
2010 1stQ), summing up to US$1,144 million. Import of polished diamonds (net)
saw 68% rise in 2010 reaching US$ 4,218 million (39% rise in karat terms), and
48.5% rise in 2011 1stQ (US$
1,234 million).
In terms of target
export (polished diamonds) countries, overall in 2010 the USA returned to be
main destination, with 41% of total export (45% in 2011 1stQ). This
comes after earlier in 2010, for the first time Far East markets became
Israel’s diamond industry’s main target, with sales to Hong Kong being close to
these of the USA, to whom sales decreased dramatically in view of the severe
economic crisis (traditionally sales to the USA comprised some 60%-65% of total
export). In 2010 and early 2011, export to Hong Kong comprised around 26% of
sales. Other main target countries include Belgium, India, Switzerland and
China.
In February 2009,
Israel was ranked as the world’s largest exporter of cut diamonds, followed by
India, Belgium and South Africa.

engagements.
