Hull Fair warning as man fined for selling counterfeit hoodies last year

TRADERS and customers are being warned of the potential risks posed by counterfeit goods that may be on sale at Hull Fair next month.

The alert follows a successful prosecution by Hull City Council’s Trading Standards team of a Doncaster man for selling fake White Fox hooded sweatshirts at the fair in 2024.

David James Smith admitted to charges under the Trade Marks Act 1994, at Hull Magistrates’ Court on August 15. He was ordered to pay a fine of £120, a victim surcharge of £48, and a contribution towards costs of £300.

The imitation hoodies were being hawked on-street for £20 - a stark contrast to the £55 retail price of the genuine article.
