Liffey Distributors, the sole supplier of Husqvarna products for all retailers in Ireland, has been made aware of counterfeit Husqvarna products, particularly chainsaws, being sold throughout Ireland.  Liffey Distributors main concern is health and safety, which none of these counterfeit products have and are therefore highly dangerous.

In his concern for customers and their safety, Tony Brady Marketing Director said, ‘We do not sell product outside of authorised agents’. A lot of the sales of the counterfeit Husqvarna products are at car boot sales, markets and door to door sales without an appointment. The biggest problem is that there is no safety features included and are highly dangerous and although they have a " CE " sticker, they have no such clearance and wouldn't pass any European tests.
 
The only notable distinction between the counterfeit products and the real Husqvarna products is, Husqvarna aurthorised agents do not call into farmer's yard, unless invited, they do not attend car boot sales and markets, unless it is by a local dealer and that dealer is appointed and they have a local shop with sales and service support and can offer an after sales service. Each authorized agent will have a branded Husqvarna van, a business card, overalls and a local outlet where they stock Husqvarna products.

All authorised dealers are listed on www.husqvarna.ie or can be verified by calling 01 8242600.
