Gaining ROI through anticounterfeiting tactics (sidebar)

Combatting counterfeiting isn’t easy, and it’s not inexpensive. The tangible capital outlays to go to battle may include costs for packaging equipment, equipment integration, and ongoing materials expenses.

• Fewer expired returns

• Increased sales due to market appearance

• Reduced counterfeit and diversion losses
