THE government has made significant efforts to combat the proliferation of counterfeit goods, which pose serious economic and health risks to the country.
Speaking ahead of a summit organised by The Financial Gazette in partnership with the ministry of Industry and Commerce and set for December 12 in Harare to discuss the burgeoning counterfeit goods trade, the ministry’s Director of Quality Assurance and Trade Measures, Macheka Muchumairi, said the event promises to be a landmark initiative in combating the trade in contraband goods and safeguarding consumer trust.
