Kenya’s anti-counterfeit agency confiscates fake goods worth Sh1 billion

ACA yesterday said it had confiscated the products, a day after goods worth about Sh100 million were destroyed through burning. Destruction of most of the fake goods has, however, been held back by litigation after the owners moved to court. The agency, which marked the annual World Anti-Counterfeiting Day yesterday, urged consumers to be vigilant as they too are critical stakeholders in fighting counterfeits. In 2016, the event theme and activities are expected to increase awareness on counterfeiting among stakeholders including consumers, who have in many instances been duped to buying fakes.
