The rapid growth of counterfeiting and smuggling poses a serious threat to India’s economy, industry, and public safety. These illicit practices distort fair competition, drain government revenues, and compromise consumer trust. Recognising the gravity of the issue, FICCI CASCADE underscores the need for continuous awareness, informed dialogue, and coordinated action to effectively combat these challenges and safeguard national interests.
In pursuit of this mission, FICCI CASCADE is organising a seminar on the theme “Strengthening Security: Strategies to Combat Counterfeiting and Smuggling” on 13th November 2025 at The Park Hotel, Kolkata. The seminar will serve as a collaborative platform bringing together policymakers, enforcement agencies, industry leaders, legal experts, and consumer representatives. Discussions will focus on the economic, social, and health implications of illicit trade, while also exploring innovative solutions, capacity-building measures, and policy interventions to strengthen enforcement and compliance.
Through this initiative, FICCI CASCADE aims to foster a shared sense of responsibility and partnership between the public and private sectors. By encouraging open dialogue and sharing best practices, the seminar seeks to build a more resilient trade ecosystem, one that promotes transparency, consumer safety, and ethical business conduct.
