Someone does this before buying, someone after they bought it, but one way or another, the country of origin is interesting to everyone. And in most cases, it is not difficult to determine it. Usually on the packaging or on the product itself there is an inscription "Made in ..." with the name of the country.
But, sometimes, instead of the name of the country, you can find some incomprehensible abbreviation. The most common option is "Made in PRC" or "Made in P.R.C." labeling. Now a lot of different products are produced with this marking, from clothes to smartphones. Also in the product descriptions on the websites of some online stores you can find the designation "Original PRC".
In this article, we will talk about how the abbreviation PRC stands for and in which country goods with the "Made in PRC" label are produced.
In order not to delay the intrigue, let's say right away that the abbreviation PRC stands for People's Republic of China, and the marking "Made in PRC", as it is not difficult to guess, means that the product was produced in China. People's Republic of China is translated from English as the People's Republic of China and in fact it is the full name of the state of China. That's right, the most ordinary China, in no case Kosovo and not other countries with the letter "C".
There are several versions about how the inscription "Made in PRC" appeared and why it is used instead of "Made in China". According to the most popular and convincing version, the "Made in PRC" label was invented by cunning Chinese manufacturers in the early 2000s to confuse the buyer and hide the real place of production of the goods.
According to another version, which can be found on the Internet, this marking refers to goods that have passed state quality control in China. This version can often be found on the websites of online stores with spare parts. Also on sites with spare parts you can find the marking "Original PRC". According to sellers, this is the designation of high-quality spare parts produced in China or spare parts, in the production of which original components were used.
It is usually stated that "Original PRC" is not inferior in quality to original spare parts.
Another version of the origin of the "Made in PRC" label claims that since 2014, such labeling has been used by Western companies that completely transfer their production to China. This should mean that such goods are made in China, but under the full control of Western companies and using their technology. At the same time, manufacturers such as Makita, Bosch and Hitachi are often cited as examples.
For example, let's show a few labels labeled "Made in P.R.C."
