Danish supermarket chain loses fake Ralph Lauren case
A Danish supermarket chain has been ordered to pay compensation to Ralph Lauren after selling and promoting counterfeit copies of its clothes. Last month, Copenhagen’s Commercial and Maritime Court ordered Dansk Supermarked to pay damages to Ralph Lauren of around DKK 200,000 ($36,000) and DKK 25,000 in costs after hearing that its Føtex chain had advertised the fakes to the public in Denmark in brochures distributed to 1.8 million households. Dansk Supermarked claimed it was unaware that the goods were fake, but the court ruled it had not acted with sufficient rigour to determine whether the clothes were authentic and that its buyer should have been able to tell they were imitations.
