More than 10 different businesses were found trading and selling fake goods
Another shop on ' counterfeit street' has been shut down after 11 different businesses were found trading and selling fake goods. Bury New Road, to the north of Manchester city centre, has become synonymous with shops selling knock off products, from fake Dior jewellery and Givenchy perfume.
A well organised network of 'spotters' - people who alert the counterfeit shops to the presence of the authorities - was also discovered during these raids. The council say they had received numerous reports of these spotters causing harassment and intimidating locals and others visiting the area. Council and police have intervened at this premises before. In 2020 and 2021, it failed a 'test purchase' exercise carried out by brand representatives whose fake goods were being sold. Private investigators working on behalf of these brands have previously pursued prosecutions against those at this site, the council said.Councillor Luthfur Rahman, Deputy Leader of Manchester City Council said: “Anti-social behaviour is awful for anyone who has to experience it.
