Consumers beware of fake Gorillapods
The warning signs are flashing as the UK team for Joby Gorillapods urge consumers to be aware of fake Joby products which are sneaking onto the market
At the recent Photokina Show in Cologne, Joby representatives took decisive action against two manufacturers of ‘rip-off’ products. In the presence of Photokina show organisers and security, imitation products and promotional material were confiscated from the booths of two Far-East based manufacturers.
Loraine Morgan, Senior Marketing Manager for Joby in the UK said, ‘Since the original GorillaPod was launched, we have always taken a strong stance with manufacturers and distributors of products that infringe on our design patents – and will always take action to close down such activity.
“The quality of these products is poor and ultimately it is the consumer who suffers when they buy a product that does not deliver the function and reliability of a genuine Joby product,” said Loraine.
Consumers are reminded that only genuine Joby products carry the brand logo – and cheap imitations will not be of the same quality and may not meet UK safety standards. So stay alert everyone!
