Were there many fake Moutai exported in the 1980s?

In the 1980s, due to the relatively poor domestic economic conditions, the domestic liquor market was relatively underdeveloped, and a large number of Maotai liquor were exported to foreign markets. However, like other big brands, Maotai also faces the problem of counterfeit and shoddy products. In the 1980s, the popularity of Moutai gradually increased, which also prompted the emergence of more counterfeit Moutai.

Due to the imperfect domestic supervision system and market supervision measures at that time, a large number of counterfeit products appeared in Moutai. Therefore, there are indeed many counterfeit products in Moutai exported in the 1980s. Maotai Company has also taken a series of measures to prevent and crack down on counterfeit products, including the use of special packaging, anti-counterfeiting technology and patent applications to ensure the authenticity and quality of products.

Generally speaking, there were counterfeit products in the export market of Moutai in 1980s, but Maotai Company also realized and took corresponding measures to combat counterfeiting.
