Metro Manila, Philippines – Global online marketplace Temu has signed the memorandum of understanding (MOU) on e-commerce, joining collective efforts to strengthen intellectual property (IP) protection in the e-commerce sector.

Operating in more than 90 markets worldwide, Temu entered the country in 2023, where it offers local shoppers a wide range of everyday products through independent sellers.

The Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines facilitated Temu’s signing of the MOU.

Temu is a member of the International Anti-Counterfeiting Coalition, the world’s largest non-profit organization devoted to fighting against the production and distribution of counterfeit goods. Temu and IACC have launched a joint program that provides an escalation pathway for takedown requests from member brands and facilitates deeper cooperation between the platform and member brands.
