Representing the interests of Apple Inc. In Russia, the law firm Melling, Voitishkin and Partners filed a pre-trial lawsuit against Russian marshmallow maker ecoApple over its trademark. In this respect reports Lenta.ru publication with reference to Lyudmila Saltykova, founder of EcoApple.
According to Saltykova, she received the claim on September 11, 2023, the exact day the trademark’s statute of limitations expired. In their letter, Apple representatives insist that the ecoApple spelling and logo may be misleading to consumers. Lawyers want Saltykova’s right to use her company’s qualifications to be revoked.
“I was very surprised to see this objection because it analyzes our sign piece by piece. Separately, the word Apple, which is a separate apple, is not added inside the letter “O”. It’s all very strange. We registered our trademark in accordance with all the rules,” Saltykova told reporters.
