In 1931, as Australia was experiencing the gross domestic product decline and unemployment of the Great Depression, the Jewellers Association of Australia (JAA) was established to provide industry support.

Over the next 89 years and continuing to the present day, the JAA works nationally to represent and protect the interests of the jewellery industry and consumers. With a current membership of nearly 600 outlets, the JAA covers all areas of the jewellery industry – from manufacturing, to wholesaling, distribution to retail.

The JAA is proud to promote the highest standards and ethics within the Australian jewellery industry. Each of our members adheres to the JAA Code of Conduct, showing their commitment to the industry, its clients, and to excellence.

Trust is a key part of consumer confidence and providing a Code of Conduct by which our members must comply enhances this trust between business and consumers.

Our members have access to a community of like-minded individuals with similar interests and focus. Concerns raised are discussed and resolutions researched with the aid of our dedicated Board of Directors, National Industry Advisory Council and State Branches who volunteer their time for the betterment of the Australian jewellery industry.

In the event of a dispute, the JAA also has a nationwide system of assisting the industry and the customer to resolve matters of complaint in a fair and reasonable manner.

The JAA is proud to promote the highest standards and ethics within the Australian jewellery industry and encourages consumers to shop with confidence where they see the JAA member logo.

Our mission is advancing the Australian jewellery industry through representation, unity and consumer confidence.
