1 Consumer Electronics Industry Overview
2 Challenges and Opportunities in Consumer Electronic
3 Brand Protection Implementation
4 Successful Cases
The electronics industry, especially meaning consumer electronics (CE), now become a global industry worth billions of dollars.
The electronics industry encompasses a wide range of different manufacturing processes and products. The most visible products of the electronics industry are consumer electronics such as television sets, computers and cameras.
These visible products represent a tip of iceberg situation as a large part of the electronics products.

According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection department statistics, consumer electronics has been ranked the second most frequently seized fake products since 2014.
The Counterfeit in US Electronics Market
Counterfeit Alarm in the Consumer Electronics Industry
However, there comes an alarming issue that some lawbreakers target at these products due to the tremendous profit.
Asia is the most predominant regional source of counterfeit CE products. Additionally, Russia and India are suspected sources, followed by Tai Wan, Philippines and Malaysia.
Leading Counterfeit Electronic Countries
Counterfeit Electronic CasesU.S. Department of Commerce (2015)• More than 8% of total electronic
merchandize trade is counterfeit• Estimated revenue loss USD 600 billion
Grey Market and Counterfeit Abatement, AGMA (2014)• 8-10% of all technology goods sold worldwide are
from grey market.• Estimated revenue lost USD 100 billion.
U.S. Patent and Trademark Office• USD 250 billion damage to the US economy due
to counterfeit and piracy.• Cost to the industry in terms of product failures,
returns and litigation, cannot be assessed, but are expected to be tremendous.
Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA)• USD 7.5 billion lost revenue to semiconductor
manufacturer due to counterfeiting• About 11,000 jobs lost.
US Customs and Border Protection and China’s General Administration of Customs (2015)• 245 thousand counterfeit consumer electronic
devices seized before they got exported out of China.
China Customs Office in South China (2015)• Over 6000 counterfeit radios seized which
infringed on Sony trademarks. • Within less than 12 weeks the customs office
seized in total 11 consecutive batches of infringement and counterfeit consumer electronics products, including mobile phones, earphones, game consoles.
How Electronics Products are Counterfeited
• Relabeling
• Sanded and Remarked
• Blacktopped and Remarked
• Scrap Salvaging
• Illegal Manufacturing
• Etc.

Factors Contribute the Entry of Counterfeit Electronics into the Supply Chain:
• Instant Pudding Mindset
Some OEMs pursue high productivity in a short time, this results in shorter leading time for components manufacturers. In this situation, counterfeit electronics components with short leading time appear in the market.
• No Inspection
In order to produce high quality components with lower cost of time and money, some OCMs omit the process of products inspection. Consequently, no inspection leaves supply chains vulnerable to counterfeit entry.
• Weak Control on Offshore Production
Production outsourcing sacrifice control over product manufacturing and flow
• Complicated Distributor Supply Chain
Few have supplier relationships or product inspection programs, leaving many opportunities for counterfeit product entry.
