Definition of 'Brand Piracy'
When a product is named similarly to a well-known brand so that consumers may mistake it for the actual brand-name. Brand piracy is common among products that can easily be replicated. The copies often have logos that resemble the design of the genuine product, be it layout, symbols, color or font. Oftentimes, this is done on purpose by a company to mislead consumers and gain some market share.
