SAN PEDRO CITY, Laguna — Bureau of Customs (BOC) officials and personnel destroyed on Wednesday afternoon hundreds of boxes of fake goods worth at least PHP3 billion inside an accredited warehouse condemnation facility along Narra Road in Barangay San Antonio in this city.
BOC Auction and Cargo Disposal Division and Enforcement and Security Services (ESS), together with the authentic product brand representatives, led the destruction of the counterfeit goods inside the warehouse owned by Tritek Reverse Logistics Corp.
Mia Leaño, the Auction and Cargo disposal division head led Customs personnel in destroying the bogus products while other BOC officials destroyed the labeling machine for the fake brands with the use of a sledge hammer.
“These fake products continue to undermine the legitimate brand owners in the country that are greatly affected by the proliferation of fake items,” Leaño said.
