Dubai: Dubai’s Department of Economic Development (DED) said on Wednesday it has signed an agreement with Daimler AG, manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, to tackle counterfeiting.
Under a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), the “DED and Daimler will work together to eliminate use and trade of counterfeit auto parts and to educate consumers on intellectual property rights (IPR),” according to an emailed statement.
The DED will provide Daimler AG with receipts of counterfeit Mercedes-Benz auto parts confiscated in the emirate so that their origins can be traced.
