LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SA, the world’s largest luxury-goods maker, filed a U.S. trade complaint seeking to block U.S. imports from China of handbags, luggage and other accessories that copy the Louis Vuitton look.
Some Chinese companies are infringing trademarks “through a systematic copying of Louis Vuitton product lines, bag styles and overall identity,” the company said in a complaint filed Dec. 3 with the U.S. International Trade Commission in Washington.
