Jiangsu: Zara fakes seized

2013/06/26

Enforcement officials from the Qinhuai District Administration of Industry and Commerce in Nanjing recently seized more than 400 pieces of clothing that infringed on the trademark rights of the Spanish brand Zara. The items had a potential retail value of 90,000 yuan ($14,661). The owner said these clothes were the balance orders from the factories, but an official investigation revealed they were actually counterfeits sold wholesale from Yiwu and other Chinese markets. The owner had made nearly 100,000 yuan from the illegal sale.
