Résumé : |
The authors highlights the need for an accurate description of products to protect not just consumers, but the wider leather industry.
In the modern world of commerce, the marketing of goods and services has become precision focused. Words are not used for no apparent reason - they are carefully thought out riding on other brand names to intentionally gain market share in sectors that dominated by larger names. Whether the device is used in activism protest or as an entry tactic into a competitive market, mislabelling or vague labelling is bad business practice. The loser is the consumer. |
