From Amazon to AliExpress, Temu, and beyond, we safeguard our clients’ brands by removing counterfeit sellers and recovering lost revenue. We proudly serve some of the world’s most renowned brands and artists in Music, Gaming, Sports, and Entertainment. Brandsolo protects high-profile artists, including top DJs like Martin Garrix and The Chainsmokers, as well as legendary bands like Foreigner and Journey. We collaborate with major festival and nightlife brands such as Awakenings, Thunderdome, Defqon1, Mysteryland, Q-dance, and ID&T, along with record labels like STMPD Records. In the sports sector, we support icons such as Diego Maradona and the cycling team Visma-Lease a Bike. Sustainability Focus 1 – Helping Stop Modern Slavery: The unsustainable counterfeit industry, valued at a staggering $1 trillion annually, significantly contributes to modern slavery, human trafficking, and child labor. By eliminating fake sales for our clients, we take a stand against these injustices. Sustainability Focus 2 – Regreening the Planet: Brandsolo invests in regreening dry lands to combat climate change and support vulnerable communities in Africa. Why Brands Choose Us? • Revenue Growth: Our clients consistently experience increased profits, with a 10-20% revenue increase even after our fees.
