Introduction
• South Africa is a significant producer of gold, diamonds and platinum.\r\n
• Despite the wealth of resources, the jewellery manufacturing industry remains small and South Africa has a long history of failing to beneficiate and add value to its raw minerals. \r\n
• Jewellery manufacture and retail sales declined marginally in 2022.\r\n
• Revenue growth in 2023 is expected to be strong. \r\n
• Although many initiatives have been implemented to encourage competitiveness and to increase beneficiation, growth is hampered by the lack of new entrants, a shortage of skilled labour and challenging trading conditions.
Trends
• Consumers increasingly making high-value purchases online, and jewellers adapting by establishing online stores and leveraging digital marketing strategies.
• Emphasis on local and handcrafted designs.
• Fashion and art trends influencing designers to experiment with unconventional materials, avant-garde designs and innovative techniques.
• Growing demand for jewellery that is ethically sourced and produced.
• Growing male jewellery market.
• Increasing demand for unique and personalised jewellery.
• Popularity of laboratory-grown synthetic or cultured diamonds.
• The adoption of advanced technologies enabling jewellers to streamline production processes, enhance design capabilities and create intricate and precise jewellery pieces.
• Wedding jewellery continues to be a significant driver of revenue.
Opportunities
• Design innovations from South African manufacturers.
• Ecommerce and online platform growth.
• Growing global demand.
• Rich resource base of precious metals, diamonds and gemstones.
• Sustainable and ethical sourcing.
Challenges
• Counterfeit and illegal products.
• Economic volatility and uncertainty affecting affordability and demand.
• Global competition from established players.
• Lack of skilled workers.
• Quality of infrastructure and logistics.
• Regulatory environment.
• Reliance on imports of raw materials, components and machinery.
Outlook
• The outlook will be influenced by economic factors, consumer trends, confidence and disposable income, recovery of the tourism sector and re-opening of international markets, competition and market positioning, digital transformation and government support, policies and regulations. \r\n
• Jewellery manufacturing leverages natural resources, has the potential to create jobs and build on growing local and global demand. \r\n
• Jewellery consumption is expected to stabilise at approximately 6% growth annually to 2025, which will drive revenue of locally-produced and sold jewellery. \r\n
• Increased interest in locally-produced goods and the global competitiveness of local jewellery manufacturers opens opportunities for increased import replacement.\r\n
• Multiple challenges have resulted in declines in the value of jewellery exports and the volume of jewellery beneficiation of platinum, gold and diamonds.
