    Langsha penalized for suspected pyramid scheme; socks repeatedly fail national spot checks

    In July 2019, Beijing Business Today reported that a Langsha business was penalized for suspected pyramid selling, and its attempt to expand channels through a social e-commerce model “hit a roadblock in taking a shortcut.” On quality, in the 2018 national supervision spot check, Langsha Knitting Co., Ltd.'s “core-spun silk short socks” were notified for failing on transverse elongation value and fiber content; in a 2015 Shanghai spot check, Langsha sock products also failed. Impact and handling: the pyramid scheme penalty and product quality problems combined to affect Langsha's brand image. Progress: administrative penalty. Entities: Langsha Knitting Co., Ltd.; Langsha Holding Group Co., Ltd. Scope: Langsha's social e-commerce business and spot-check batches including core-spun silk short socks.
