Default Are Poundland "Duracell" batteries fakes?

Thus spaketh Andy:
Poundland (in the UK) sells a set of three AAA Duracell Plus batteries
for £1.

The batteries are sold in a blister pack The cells seem to have all
the small print of a genuine Duracell on. However the backing card
of the blister pack has some nondescript brand name on it and makes no
reference to Duracell.

Are these real Duracells?

If not then why would a known chain like Pouldland really try to
deliberately pass off counterfeit goods as the real thing?



They will be probably be the same as when Richer Sounds were selling
Duracell's cheap.

They bulk buy them in and then re-package them.
