311,539 products involved in infringement! MercadoLibre Mexico will increase supervision!

It is learned that according to foreign media reports, MercadoLibre Mexico recently stated that 311,539 infringing products were found on its platform. Among the categories involved in the infringement, adult products, digital books, digital accounts (such as selling email accounts) and game subscriptions were the most numerous.

In addition, on MercadoLibre Mexico, the top ten infringing products include pharmaceuticals, medical devices, antennas and signal decoders, alcoholic beverages, and products related to female abortion.

Federico Deya, MercadoLibre's regional legal director, said MercadoLibre has a zero-tolerance attitude towards infringing products and will not allow sellers to sell these products.

MercadoLibre has reportedly developed a detection system to identify infringing products on its platform and has launched a Brand Protection Program (BPP) that allows brand owners to report infringing products to it, and MercadoLibre will issue warnings and further prohibit the continued sale of infringing products.

It is learned that between January and June 2021, MercadoLibre found nearly 9 million posts of infringing products on social platforms. MercadoLibre is stepping up its efforts to crack down on infringing products, and sellers should register intellectual property rights for their products in a timely manner to avoid unnecessary losses.
