Under their business registration certificate, the company was only allowed to make spare parts for motorbikes, including pistons under the Taiwanese brand name of Chen Sheng. However, the inter-agency inspection task force caught the company producing counterfeit spare parts bearing well-known Japanese brands, such as NPR of Nippon and ART of ART.RIKE Metal, who have sole distribution rights under Vietnamese law.

The task force seized hundreds of cases, each containing hundreds of counterfeit products, many of which bore anti-counterfeit stamps. One vehicle was also seized transporting more than 4,000 sets of fraudulant heads and pistons headed to Hoa Binh and Son La provinces for sales.

According to Major Nguyen Ngoc Ly, from Hanoi Economics Security Police Board, the company has been producing these fake products for a long time. The inspection task force has been investigating the firm for some time, he said, also estimating that thousands of other fake spare motorbike parts are still in the company's inventory waiting to be sold.

Authorities complete prosecution procedures on the Taiwanese company.
