▪️ Luxury Under Scrutiny: The Brazilian luxury brand Tânia Bulhões Dishes Buzz and the Importance of Intellectual Property. Recently, the luxury Brazilian brand Tânia Bulhões found itself at the center of a controversy involving authenticity and intellectual property rights. It all started when a consumer found, in a store in Thailand, a cup extremely similar to those sold by the trademark, but without the official logo. The episode quickly sparked questions: is it a fake? A deviation in the production chain?
▪️ What really happened? The company has issued a statement clarifying that the product was marketed without its authorization, through an unauthorized supplier and outside its quality control. In response, it announced measures to strengthen its vigilance over the production chain, ensuring that only original products reach the market.
▪️ What Does This Case Teach Us about Intellectual Property?
