Sports Brand 361 ° Sued 13 Supermarkets In Jiaozuo, Henan For Trademark Infringement

?

On July 27, the Intermediate People's Court of Jiaozuo City, Henan Province, centrally accepted the trademark infringement case filed by 361 ° (Fujian) Sporting Goods Co., Ltd., a famous sporting goods manufacturer in China, against 13 shopping malls and supermarkets in Jiaozuo City. It is reported that this acceptance of trademark infringement case is the first time that Jiaozuo Intermediate People's Court has accepted this type of case.

The plaintiff 361 ° (Fujian) Sporting Goods Co., Ltd. claimed that 361 ° is a famous sporting goods manufacturer in China. The company wrote in the complaint that after years of market development, extensive use and vigorous publicity, it has become a leading brand in the field of sports shoes, clothing, socks and other sporting goods. Because the plaintiff's trademark has a high market reputation and product quality has a high reputation, its products are in short supply in the market, and a large number of acts of counterfeiting the plaintiff's trademark have occurred in the market.

In June 2011, the 361 ° company found that 13 shopping malls and supermarkets, including Jiaozuo Dashang Supermarket and Liuhaoyuan Supermarket, sold products with "361 °" signs shoes , T-shirts and other products. The company believed that the sales of shopping malls and supermarkets had infringed the plaintiff's exclusive right to use registered trademarks and caused considerable economic losses. In order to safeguard its legitimate rights and interests, it filed a lawsuit with Jiaozuo Intermediate People's Court.

It is understood that this is the first batch of trademark infringement dispute cases accepted by Jiaozuo Intermediate People's Court. Because it involves many shopping malls and supermarkets in many counties and districts of Jiaozuo City, the scope of the case is wide and the impact is large, the leaders of the Court attach great importance to it. At present, special personnel have been arranged to review and file the case one by one on the relevant materials and evidence provided by 361 ° Company.
