A clothing company which sold tens of thousands of pounds of counterfeit t-shirts has been fined only a fraction of this sum.
T-Shirt Subway flogged the branded band, television show and movie tops online in breach of trademarks. The Prescot-based firm even continued doing so after receiving a cease and desist warning from Trading Standards.
Liverpool Crown Court heard today, Friday, that an investigation by St Helens Council revealed that the business had sold around £30,000 of infringing goods between May 2017 and July 2018. Officers made test purchases from its now defunct website as part of their enquiries.
