The financiers of the Compagnia di Ottaviano, at a sole proprietorship in San Giuseppe Vesuviano, have seized a total of approximately 107.000 unsafe and counterfeit products, including carnival items and accessories lacking the minimum safety indications or bearing the undue affixing of the CE marking.
