TRES Marketplace Solutions Announces Smart Takedown™ Solution for Alibaba Listings

CHICAGO, May 17, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- TRES Marketplace Solutions (www.TRES.ai), the leading provider of marketplace risk solutions for brand owners, has announced the availability of TRES Smart Takedown™ for Alibaba's online marketplaces. TRES Smart Takedown™ allows brand owners that find counterfeit listings on Alibaba websites to report them efficiently to Alibaba with the goal of removing the listings and sellers. After the report, TRES will monitor the listings and the online activities of sellers responsible for the fraudulent listings.

"We are pleased to announce the release of TRES Smart Takedown™ for Alibaba. We have deployed this solution on Amazon.com with success and we look forward to serving clients that want to address their risks on Alibaba," said David Ruder, Chief Executive Officer of TRES Marketplace Solutions. "Any company concerned about reducing their exposure to problematic third party sellers on Alibaba should take advantage of TRES Smart Takedown™. We use a 'shared risk' approach to help multiple brand owners facing the same problems online, and offer a solution that is efficient and provides more valuable insights than what brand owners can achieve on their own."

Once a brand owner provides information on a counterfeit listing, TRES will report the violation to Alibaba. TRES then monitors the listing to see if it is removed and then tracks and reports on the seller's actions going forward. A seller that sells a counterfeit product once will likely be a repeat offender across multiple brands. TRES captures this activity, and helps brand owners manage risk.

This service is offered for free on a limited-time basis to brand owners that are current and former members of the International AntiCounterfeiting Coalition (IACC). TRES is an independent company and has no formal affiliation with Alibaba or the IACC.
