Justify. https://padlet.com/hctae/wzl0sdz8zlnw80zu/wish/2157732305 As a client might put it, counterfeiting isn't always bad. Indeed, in certain cases, they compel businesses to enhance quality and innovate in terms of authenticity protection. Furthermore, counterfeits have a large global market since they sell in large quantities to a specific sort of client and employ a large number of people. Nevertheless, the mentioned information is a major source of worry for the BRANDS themselves. Counterfeit products manufacturing and trafficking represent a substantial health and safety risk to consumers in some cases. As a result, the companies face a lot of criticism since that's what the media and high-end clientele are all about.]]> 2022-04-26 02:59:13 UTC https://padlet.com/hctae/wzl0sdz8zlnw80zu/wish/2157732305 Group 2: Answers https://padlet.com/hctae/wzl0sdz8zlnw80zu/wish/2157750007 1.

Because every product has its uniqueness, once a trademark is registered, it means it is protected by law. In addition, often consumers receive poor quality goods at an excessive price and sometimes are exposed to health and safety hazards. Lastly, if a counterfeit luxury product does not work like the original one, it will associate the luxury brand with faulty products in this market, resulting in a lower brand image and a loss of sales.]]> 2022-04-26 03:15:50 UTC https://padlet.com/hctae/wzl0sdz8zlnw80zu/wish/2157752768 Group 3 Answer taylorshellyna https://padlet.com/hctae/wzl0sdz8zlnw80zu/wish/2157761898 1. Counterfeiting can sometimes benefit for luxury brand company as it can be a free marketing tools for the company and exposure for the brand.

  • Track down the seller and producers and report them to the authorities. The brands are intensively using networks to knock off the counterfeits because it helps them identify the whole network of counterfeits as a whole.
  • The company registers trademarks when their new products are made, in most jurisdictions possible. This practice can prevent most of the market to counterfeit their products and will make them illegal.
  • Each product has a unique QR code that proves its authenticity of it.
