Counterfeit Givi helmets: the story
During the last edition of EICMA, Givi employees noticed the presence in the catalogs of Wenzhou Youai Plastic Products Co. Ltd of models that were entirely similar to those of the company founded in 1978 by Giuseppe Visenzi . Similar, but if you prefer, simply tarot cards. Yes, because the Chinese company has, in fact, made copies of the cases designed by Givi but without the necessary certifications. So a report was promptly sent from Givi to the Mobile Unit of the Guardia di Finanza which led the military to carry out an inspection of the eastern stand and arrange for the seizure of the non-original cases. Unfortunately, what happened to Givi is not an isolated case. Already in the past some oriental companies had attempted to copy, without too much consideration, Vespa and MP3. Fortunately, the intervention of the police prevented serious economic and image damage to Givi.
