PHOTO / Customs in action: Nearly 5,000 counterfeit fashion and sports brands seized

Customs authorities in Croatia conducted an intensified inspection campaign along the Adriatic coast and in continental Croatia, uncovering nearly 5,000 items suspected of being counterfeit products bearing well-known global fashion and sports brand logos. The operation targeted multiple retail locations and businesses, where goods were found marked with renowned brand insignias but lacked proper authorization, original packaging, or documentation regarding their origin and traceability. These items include clothing, textiles, sports equipment, accessories, sunglasses, and perfumes. Customs has temporarily seized all these items for further investigation under breach-of-trademark laws.
