Inderjit Sangu, aged 67, from West Bromwich, was caught in possession of thousands of counterfeit labels and clothing items ripping off big-name brands including Moncler, Canada Goose, Nike, Adidas, Prada, Ralph Lauren, Versace, Hugo Boss and Lacoste.
A man behind a multi-million pound fake clothes factory has been jailed for four years.
Inderjit Sangu ran an ‘industrial scale’ operation out of his unit in Hockley supplying markets around the country with knock-off items.
The 67-year-old ripped off luxury brands such as Moncler and Canada Goose which sell garments for hundreds of pounds each. He also imitated a host of other big-name retailers including Ralph Lauren, Hugo Boss, Versace, Prada, Givenchy, Lacoste, Nike and Adidas.
When Trading Standards officials raided his unit on Park Road they seized more than 40,000 fake labels, and ‘hundreds of thousands of pounds’ worth of clothing items with the labels already fitted.
