Canada's Jewellery and Watch Wholesaling industry has shrivelled over the past five years, faced with intense competition from online retailers and sinking consumer confidence. The COVID-19 pandemic pummeled discretionary purchases and kept luxury items like fine jewellery stuck in warehouses as consumers opted for more affordable alternatives. Demand for costume jewellery somewhat mitigated declines as shoppers were eager to keep up with fast fashion. Although prices of commodities like gold and silver skyrocketed as consumers stocked up on safe-haven assets, the inflated prices failed to alleviate revenue declines. Over the past five years, revenue for jewellery and watch wholesalers has been declining at a CAGR of 6.0% and is expected to reach $3.6 billion in 2023, when revenue is projected to expand 5.1%.
