Market Management Team No. 10 - Hanoi Market Management Sub-Department has just coordinated with Quang Minh Commune Police (Hanoi) to inspect a business household owned by Ms. D. T. H. N, in an apartment in Apartment B1, HUD building (Quang Minh commune).
Through inspection, functional forces discovered that the establishment was trading 381 cosmetic products bearing the BIOTIN COLLAGEN ESSENCE VOUDIOTY brand, including 168 bottles of shampoo and 213 bottles of conditioner.
According to records of functional forces, the Vietnamese sub-labels affixed to BIOTIN COLLAGEN ESSENCE VOUDIOTY shampoo and conditioner products show that the goods are exclusively distributed and sold by VISI Investment and Trading Joint Stock Company, located at No. 27, Alley 41, Alley 640 Nguyen Van Cu, Gia Thuy Ward, Long Bien District, Hanoi.
At the time of inspection, Ms. D. T. H. N could not present a business household registration certificate. At the same time, the household owner also could not provide invoices and documents proving the legal origin of all the goods being sold, and did not list the prices of goods according to regulations.
Notably, initial verification results from Quang Minh Commune Police showed that the above cosmetics showed signs of being counterfeit goods.
Accordingly, products are labeled with auxiliary labels in Vietnamese but show signs of forging information about importing and distributing units and product declaration information written on the goods label.
According to Quang Minh Commune Police, these signs show that the case has signs of trading in counterfeit goods.
Based on the collected documents and information, the coordinating agency requested Market Management Team No. 10 to transfer the case file to Quang Minh Commune Police for further investigation and handling according to their authority.
Representatives of Market Management Team No. 10 said that at the time of inspection, functional forces had not detected documents or vouchers showing the purchase and sale of the above-mentioned goods. Therefore, there is no basis to determine the amount of illegal profits from business households before the time of inspection.
Currently, the case is being further verified and clarified by functional agencies.
