ValueMax hits back at copyright infringement claims

This stemmed from jewelries which allegedly had branding similar to LV.

ValueMax Group has hit back at Louis Vuitton after it filed a lawsuit alleging that the Group’s retail arm sold items that infringed or passed off LV trademarks.

LV alleges that in July and August of 2024 ValueMax Retail sold two pieces of jewelry at its Yishun Street 22 store that had branding identical or similar to LV’s.

ValueMax argued the sales of the items in question as they were unredeemed pawned items procured through separate sources by the Group.

The company says that it will vigorously and robustly defend these claims brought forward by LV at every appropriate legal stage and will take all necessary action to defend its reputation, according to a bourse filing on 18 December 2025.

ValueMax is of the opinion that the case will not have any material impact on business of the Group as well as the financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2025.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
