Shanghai police cracked down on China’s first case of counterfeiting “green food” certification marks. What penalties will those involved face?

The Shanghai Public Security Bureau detected China’s first case of counterfeiting a “green food” certification mark. The person involved took criminal coercive measures on suspicion of counterfeiting registered trademarks and other illegal and criminal acts. And the case will be further investigated.

Relevant reports show that someone has printed relevant green food certification trademarks without authorization and attached them to the outer packaging bags of agricultural products. This is used to increase quality levels and increase product prices for personal gain. The Public Security Bureau conducted strict investigations and judgments throughout the city of Shanghai, and worked with the rural departments to investigate the country's first series of counterfeit agricultural and rural green food cases, arresting 11 suspects, and searched for more than 300,000 trademarks, and only the suspected amount reached more than 2 million yuan. In order to seek personal and illegal benefits, the criminal suspects arbitrarily manufactured green food trademarks without authorization from green food development, and affixed them to relevant agricultural products to increase the quality level, and sold them at a price of more than 50 yuan higher than ordinary agricultural products. Increase profits. Not only that, they also privately apply information from other companies to mislead consumers and make them purchase at higher prices.

In the face of relevant national regulations, agricultural products must be reviewed by the Green Food Development Center before they can be authorized to affix green food trademarks. However, many criminals use those fake green foods to raise prices for personal gain. Obtain improper benefits. Through such cases, when the relevant public security bureau inspected green food, did they find that many trademarks had abnormalities and no information? This belongs to counterfeit and shoddy products and behavior, and a case was opened for investigation and the relevant criminal gangs were arrested. After being labeled with green food trademarks, the price is increased by 50 yuan per catty. Although there are no other quality problems, it is also an act of arbitrarily raising prices privately, and they do not meet the national standards in terms of environment, technical product standards, etc. Green food standards.

This kind of behavior completely violates the legitimate rights and interests of consumers. If you buy relevant green products, you must carefully screen and check whether they are regular goods. If there is any violation of consumer rights, you must report it to the police. Report to relevant departments and provide key evidence to the public security organs.
