"Top Chinese B-to-B Firm Takes the Lead on Battling Fakes"

DHgate.com patrols its site for fakes, requires certification of sellers.

Shanghai, China (PRWEB) December 6, 2007 -- Leading Chinese B-to-B firm Dhgate.com (http://www.dhgate.com) is taking the lead on battling counterfeit goods made in China.

Each day, Dhgate.com connects over 100,000 Chinese manufacturers and more than 10 million products with buyers throughout the world. It's a job that DHgate.com takes seriously because company executives and employees are keenly aware of suspicions regarding the authenticity and safety of some Chinese products.

To combat problems with counterfeit goods, the company has its "daily authenticity patrol," which searches the offerings on its website in effort to prevent fake goods from being sold to buyers on their site.

In addition, Dhgate.com has a rigorous certification program for companies wishing to sell products on the popular website. The site also incorporates a unique escrow account system designed to safeguard buyers' money.

"We want to be the leader in providing a resource for the purchase of products made in China. Many of our buyers are small businesses, and they depend upon us to do everything we can to make certain they get the exact products they order," said Celina Chen, DHgate.com's Chief Operating Officer (COO). "We're working hard to both provide and promote genuine made-in-China that are both of high quality and an excellent value for money.

"We are making every effort to reduce counterfeit goods and punish sellers who sell them," she added.

Ms. Chen has also noted in her popular blog (http://blog.dhgate.com/page/3/), that it is a problem even Ebay, with all its resources, has not been able to eliminate the problem.

Hopefully, other firms will follow DHgate.com's lead and work to eliminate the problem of fake, poor quality products.
