Winning The Battle Against Counterfeit Apparel

In the retail and fashion industry, originality is everything. With the quantity and quality of counterfeit products on the rise, the need for innovative brand protection security solutions to ensure consumers are getting authentic products is critical to brand owners.

As your brand grows, bad actors are never far behind. Fake apparel damages brand value and organizations are left to deal with poor quality dupes, logo abuse, patent & copyright infringement, pricing violation and consumer engagement. Nanotech’s brand protection solutions deliver an exceptional blend of enhanced security and immediate visual impact as customers authenticate your product.

According to OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development), fakes account for 3.3% of global trade ($509 billion) while clothing and footwear accounted for 38% of civil seizures. 44% of industry experts agreed that large-scale counterfeit networks erode brand value more than gray markets or unauthorized listings on social media platforms.
