    • Trademark Pending

    • Design Pending

Nothing communicates intent to protect your rights clearer than that!

Why trademark?

  • You can "own" your brand forever

  • Prevents others from using a brand that is "confusingly similar" to your primary brand (e.g. McDonald's) and food / drink name (e.g. Big Mac)

Why patent?

  • Can secure a 20‐year monopoly

  • Prevents others from using your recipe / cooking method or making food with the same composition; and importing, advertising and selling such foodstuff

  • Scares off potential copycats

  • Official proof that you are the inventor

  • Customers "know" your food product is "NEW"

Why register a design?

  • Lasts for between 10 and 25 years

  • Prevents others from copying your novel bottle, can or carton shape

  • The best and cheapest form of protection against "early‐bird" copycats

  • Your packaging becomes an extension of your "Brand"
