Police from the Economic Crime Suppression Division raided a warehouse of counterfeit brand-name clothing in Rayong city, where live streaming sales were brazenly conducted. They seized over 6,400 fake shirts and pants of well-known brands valued at 2 million baht and are expediting legal action against the owner.
On 9 July 2026, Pol. Maj. Gen. Tatsapoom Jaruprat, commander of the Economic Crime Suppression Division, ordered Pol. Col. Phuwadet Julkasewi, chief of Division 1, along with Pol. Lt. Wisarut Thaichanad and Pol. Lt. Chanathik Rojanapitayakorn, investigators of Division 1, to execute a search warrant at a large house and warehouse in Wang Wa Subdistrict, Klaeng District, Rayong Province. This followed complaints from trademark company representatives who reported that the online shop brazenly live-streamed sales of counterfeit and imitation trademarked clothing registered in Thailand, showing blatant disregard for the law.
The search found that the house had an extended area used as storage and packing space for nationwide delivery. Another warehouse about 200 meters away was also discovered. Ms. Duangjai (surname withheld), the site supervisor, led officers during the search of both locations. They found a large quantity of counterfeit branded clothing, including fake pants bearing trademarks such as Polo, CCOO, Adidas, H&M, and Nike, as well as counterfeit shirts with trademarks including Manchester United, Puma, Adidas, Yamaha, Kappa, Nike, Gucci, Liverpool, Umbro, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Lacoste, Zara, Hermes, and Dior. In total, 6,455 items were seized, valued at approximately 2 million baht.
During questioning, Ms. Duangjai stated that all the goods were purchased from various sources and resold for profit. Over 30 employees worked onsite to sort, pack, and ship these counterfeit items to customers across the country.
Authorities seized all the evidence and charged those responsible with "possessing for sale goods bearing counterfeit and imitation trademarks of others registered in the kingdom." The case was forwarded to investigators in Division 1 of the Economic Crime Suppression Division for prosecution under the law. Authorities are continuing investigations to identify and prosecute the actual owner and other involved parties.
