Detecting a counterfeit children's health food chain

On April 25, the Office of the Ministry of Public Security's Investigation Police Agency said that the unit is investigating a very large health food production line that uses fake test results to bring products to market. Notably, the subjects in this line have targeted nutritional supplements for children, including infants.

The ringleader of this ring is Pham Vu Khiem, Director of Herbitech Technology Company Limited. During the investigation, the authorities determined that two health food products identified as counterfeit were produced by Herbitech Technology Company Limited in Block 8, Phu Lo Commune, Soc Son District, Hanoi City, namely BABY SHARK and Medi Kid Calcium K2.

The health food product BABY SHARK manufactured by Herbitech Technology Company Limited was identified as counterfeit.

The police agency determined that the above Company had processed and produced more than 200 products worth hundreds of billions of VND, but lacked quality control. Although the products were advertised as imported from France, Germany, and the US, the actual price and quality were not as announced.

At the police station, initially, Pham Vu Khiem confessed to having altered the product's declared target. Specifically, he had altered the content to make it unsatisfactory in order to release it to the market.

The incident is continuing to be investigated by the authorities.
