We successfully acted for Black Sea Snacks Ltd., a local producer of processed nuts, in trademark opposition proceedings before the Bulgarian Patent Office. We negotiated a favorable settlement between our client and its competitor Lajkonik Holding AG — a global leader in the production of snack products — which grounds for the opposition was a prior registered European trademark. As a result of our work, Black Sea Snacks continues to use in its commercial activities the trademark subject of the proceedings.
We have also advised Black Sea Snacks on competition matters related to their commercial practices by devising a strategy that establishes antitrust compliance.
