YEREVAN, OCTOBER 23, NOYAN TAPAN. There is no sense in faking of
brand-name clothing, because "high-quality" faking of production and
lables of famous companiies is a costly pleasure, while a low-quality
fake does not escape the byuer's attention. Nazaret Grboyan,
Director of the Armenian Office of the Italian company Girotti,
expressed this opinion during a talk with NT correspondent. According
to him and Susanna Muradian, Director of the Armenian Office of the
clothing-manufacturing company Giordano (Honq Kong), they have no
informatoon about any case of revealing a faked product of their
companies in Armenia. It was mentioned that it is not a function of
the Armenian offices of their companies to implement control in order
to prevent faking of their production in Armenia and its unofficial
import into the country. According to a study conducted jointly by
the DAI ASME program on development on small and medium business
markets in Armenia and the consulting company Ameria in 2004, about
two thirds of underwear and clothing sold on the domestic retail
market was produced in Armenia, and most of it was sold as foreign
goods. The volume of the domestic market of underwear and clothing
made about 300 million drams (about 750 thousand USD) in 2004.
