After carrying out a national survey of a thousand companies claiming their products were "Made in France", the country's fraud control agency has reported that 15 percent of brands were not what was advertised on the label.
The French government's anti-fraud and consumer rights agency – DGCCRF – said it has issued 87 warnings, 54 compliance injunctions, two administrative reports and 14 criminal reports for "misleading commercial practices concerning the origin of products".
