Television shopping channel fined for counterfeit sales

The HCM City People’s Committee has fined the Happy Shopping Joint Stock Company, a television shopping company, VND451 million (US$22,000) for trade violations.

The Go Vap District-based company was found guilty of importing and selling counterfeit goods, selling contraband goods and imported goods without labels in Vietnamese, and employing a foreign labourer without registration.

In April, the market management police inspected the company, confiscating more than 13,000 suspected contraband and counterfeit goods. Thousands of pieces of contraband such as cosmetics, jewelry and kitchenware and counterfeit goods have been destroyed. — VNS
