Investigation Services
At the request of manufacturers, CIB investigators are often
asked to trace fake products back from point of sale to place
of manufacture.
Since its inception, CIB has undertaken over 600 investigations
in more than 35 countries into counterfeit products ranging
from wall coverings and furniture to alcoholic beverages and
pharmaceuticals. Notably, CIB has:
- Worked on behalf of a leading sunglass manufacturer in
investigating the production and distribution of fake products
and arranging for their seizure.
- Investigated the illegal sale of French electrical components
through unauthorised distributors in Hong Kong.
- Monitored the sale of counterfeit sportswear in markets
for a leading international sportswear manufacturer and
worked closely with local law enforcement to effect seizures.
- Investigated the sale of infringing wall covering designs
in China and carried out raids and seizures on infringing
manufacturers.
- Investigated the illegal sale of counterfeit printed
circuit boards containing well-known amusement games and
coordinated raids on illicit manufacturers and distributors
throughout the world.
Such successes have earned CIB official recognition and cooperation
from many governments and international organisations. CIB
investigators enjoy close professional links with senior officials
in government and law enforcement agencies in many countries.
