Understanding Original Brands and Original Fake Brands

What is an original brand? It is a brand whose owner has total control over its creation either by manufacturing the item themselves or by designing the item and supervising its manufacture by third parties. Such brands move huge volumes, and have the financial muscle to achieve whatever quality they set out to achieve. Examples of original brands in our market include names such as Sony, Samsung, LG, and Phillips. These brands will have tested their merchandise thoroughly before they are released into the market, which means the merchandise will always meet some basic performance expectations.

Examples of original brands

What is an original fake brand? This is a brand whose owner simply bought items from some factory with his brand name stickers on the items. Examples of these in our market include Ramtons, Von, Armco, and Bruhm. Due to the low volumes ordered, such owners can only take what is already available in the market. They lack the financial might to dictate to manufacturers. The owners of such brands have no control over what they get, meaning the dependability of their merchandise can only be discovered by the end user. Another notable aspect is that their product lines change haphazardly. This means an item bought today might not be available next month but could be replaces with something slightly different.

Kindly expound more on the original fake brand because sijaelewa the term original fake brand
If you ordered 10 motorbikes from a random Chinese firm and had them labelled with your own name, you will have a product with a distinct original name, which could be argued to be a brand. But what you have just done can be repeated by a dozen other people who will order the same exact motorbike but labelled with their unique names. In this scenario, the only unique aspect of the product is the name since it shares the same design attributes with a dozen other differently branded motorbikes. Therefore, it falls under the original fake brand category.
