Anti-Counterfeiting

We conduct investigations to protect your business, brand and intellectual property.

Counterfeiting poses a tangible threat to Italian companies, generating over €7 billion in losses each year and damaging brands, products, and reputations.

At Kriteria, we assist businesses in identifying and locating individuals who produce or distribute counterfeit goods or operate in the illegal parallel market.

We monitor distribution channels, analyse the product’s journey from consumer to manufacturer, and collect documentary and photographic evidence that is admissible in court.

Our goal is straightforward: you assert your rights and we provide the evidence to support you.
