According to figures from the Ministry of Economy, Finance and Industry, counterfeiting represents an annual cost of 7 billion euros for the French economy. A significant shortfall.<\/p><p>The counterfeiting of luxury goods concerns the international market. China of course, which alone represents 95% of the world production of counterfeits. Some Eastern and Central European countries as well as the United States and Turkey complete the picture.

This fraudulent activity is carried out in full view and sometimes even becomes a tourist activity that makes a city famous: this is the case of Ventimiglia in Italy, the capital of fakes. But the Internet remains the preferred distribution channel. Contact between a seller and a buyer is easy and quick, counterfeiting actors are freed from many risks... According to a Unifab report on the impact of counterfeiting seen by companies in France, &quot;Internet is designated as the first copy distribution channel, with 40% of votes\u201d.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-17c9bc4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"17c9bc4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The consequences of counterfeiting<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e5db8b9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e5db8b9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFor 86% companies, the explosion of the counterfeiting market \u201cis partly due to the fact that consumers are not sufficiently aware of the impact of this trafficking\u201d. The buyer, who is highly exposed, cannot himself guarantee the authenticity of a supposedly luxury item and may incur serious sanctions. It is true that brands are acting as best they can against this scourge through various partnerships with online sales sites or banks. Communication and prevention campaigns are broadcast to a wide audience to raise awareness of this scourge of national and even international interest. But is it enough? Beyond the individual victim of counterfeiting, an entire economy and an industry are hard hit. According to a KPMG study, counterfeiting leads to the regular elimination of jobs (38,000 in France). The losses for companies operating in the luxury market are multiple: loss of market share, drop in R&amp;D and Marketing budget, loss of notoriety, etc. Counterfeiting has a negative impact on innovation and know-how.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0835a5e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0835a5e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Action reaction<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-957aa94 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"957aa94\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>So let&#039;s act while there is still time!<\/p><p>Repression, necessary and obligatory but by no means sufficient to deal alone with this scourge, saw a strengthening of regulations in 2021.
