Revealing The Invisible Chain Of Interest Of "Super A"

Baiyun world leather exhibition and Trade Center (three issue), Jiefang North Road, Guangzhou, a leather goods store on the 2 floor, B District, with more than 10 items on display. LV Gucci and hermes bags are hard to tell. Mr. Jiang, a shopkeeper, said he could provide high imitation Hermes, which was imported from abroad but made in Guangxi. Because of the high imitation Hermes, the price given by Mr. Jiang is 8000 yuan to 13000 yuan per package.

 

High imitation Hermes The price varies from 8000 to 13000 yuan each.

Mr. Chiang said that at present, Hermes has no regular factory in China, so the hardware and leather materials of the high imitation Hermes are imported from Italy, though not from the Hermes plant, but the simulation is very high, and at present the domestic workmanship is almost the same as that in other countries. "However, LV and Gucci can make products that are one to one. The so-called "one to one" cargo is strictly imitation according to the genuine product, the highest level of imitation goods, exactly the same appearance as the genuine goods sold by the exclusive store. At present, LV and Gucci have factories in China, and raw materials are relatively easy to find.

In fact, in Guangzhou, similar to Baiyun world leather exhibition and Trade Center, there are a lot of shops that imitate luxury goods. Many shops are still promoting the Internet. If companies claim that they specialize in LV, Gucci, Chanel and Hermes, the products are directly supplied by the factories in Taiwan and Japan, and are strictly manufactured according to the standard of 1: 1. All leather materials imported from Italy are made of leather, hardware is made of all copper, zippers are imported YKK zippers, and "all store accessories are: identity cards, manuals, dust-proof bags, counters, etc.". Moreover, the products of these imitation shops are quite complete, and the new models are updated quickly, almost following the original shipment speed.

An insider told reporters that behind these fake goods there is a hidden procurement, production chain, which is only within the circle to understand. In recent years, Guangzhou has been checking counterfeit brands, and the chain has become more secretive because of safety considerations.

In recent years, with the increasing number of luxury goods being OEM at home, it has become easier to make one to one high imitation goods. "I have seen the production workshop of LV and Gucci in a large factory in Houjie, Dongguan. This is a regular factory authorized by the brand. At present, many luxury brands have foundries in China." The industry told reporters that with the localization of manufacturing, the procurement chain of these luxury goods has become no longer mysterious.

It is understood that some of the high imitation products will buy the original luxury package back, and then open up to find suppliers of various accessories, including specialized leather, hardware, cloth and other suppliers, and now LV and other brands of raw materials can almost be found.

The main factors that determine the accuracy of counterfeit products are materials and handwork. One to one cargo is almost the same as the original version, but its handwork is no different from the original one. "Handicraft is not a high-tech thing. LV has to make some new models every year. Its pictures have been copied in China, and the imitation technology in China has reached a fairly high level." One industry insider said. {page_break}

But orders Luxury goods The biggest embarrassment is that some of the high imitation products may come from their regular foundry production lines. According to industry sources, many luxury goods of one to one are due to the outflow of the original fabric and metal parts, which originate from the same production line.

According to the reporter, luxury enterprises often give the factory more leather fabrics and metal parts, the purpose is to let the factory choose a better quality fabric processing bag, on the other hand, in the factory production process of normal wear and tear.

But now the technology level of the workers in the factory is higher and higher, and the normal loss is low. On the same production line, there will be a certain number of "one to one goods" with the same material. The quality inspector has put "unqualified" products into the market for various reasons.

The big name Made in China is no secret. There are a lot of foundry factories in China. At present, several luxury experts agree that "Hermes does not publicly admit that there are OEM in China". However, a person who has been serving luxury goods for many years told reporters that many large brands now send their products to foreign headquarters after production in China, while luxury stores in China are importing products abroad. Therefore, the origin of some luxury goods has become other countries, just like the furniture brand Da Vinci that had been exposed before, this situation also exists in luxury goods.

"The amount of luxury goods consumed abroad is not as large as that of China. The real handmade Hermes package can only produce 1 to 2 pieces of workers in 3 months to half a year, which can no longer satisfy the consumption needs of the Chinese market, so some big brands choose to transfer the production line to China. Some luxury brands are forced to mechanically produce some products. Their brands have several positioning, one is to ensure high-end quality handmade products, and another is to develop as another consumer level Deputy card, using machinery to produce. The above said.

But a lot of big brands are failing to supervise the quality of Chinese factories. Not long ago, the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) detected in various trunk handles of Samsonite, the world's largest travel luggage company, exceeded the standard, while some PAHs could cause cancer. So far, Samsonite has not given a clear explanation of the excessive PAHs content in the handle of some products, but they admit that the most fashionable Tokyo fashion products with PAHs content exceeding the standard are OEM at home.

An industry insider told reporters that after ordering the big order to the factory, leather materials, hardware, linen and lines, glue and so on are strictly designated, and all these materials must have a formal inspection report. After the finished products, each big card has a complete set of inspection standards, each package has been carefully examined. Is the problem of product quality dereliction of duty for the foundries? "In fact, the factory does not understand the standard of inspection of big brands. They only produce according to their requirements."
