The 2024 Review of Notorious Markets for Counterfeiting and Piracy identified 38 online markets and 33 physical markets that are reported to engage in or facilitate substantial trademark counterfeiting or copyright piracy in 2024.
The government is working on a plan called Overhaul Greenhills Project (OG Project) to eliminate stores selling counterfeit goods in the Greenhills Shopping Center and convert it into a high-end mall with legitimate sellers.
The Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) said it has proposed a work plan to tackle long-standing counterfeit activities in the Greenhills Shopping Center -- once again the lone Philippine market cited in the United States Trade Representative’s (USTR) 2022 Notorious Markets for Counterfeiting and Piracy.
