which retains loyalty to a certain extent The old customer base is the most direct connection point between products and consumers. JDB was equally active at the retail level. I found red-can Jia Duo Bao herbal tea alongside Coca-Cola in a prominent display in the convenience shop in our office building. There was no sign of red-can Wong Lo Kat produced by Guangzhou Pharma. The same was true in a bigger supermarket near my home in Yangpu District in Shanghai.

By 1952, the Tai Pak, king of the floating restaurants, was 32 meters long, about the length of two buses. Business was brisk and Wong expanded it in 1960 to become a major dining place in Hong Kong, able to accommodate 800 diners at once. You could have your wedding dinner there.

With Coca-Cola or any other brand, it's the product that is at the heart of the brand and brands should play around their product. They have a wide range of categories and a full range of beverages, occupying more than 80% of the market share of tea beverages.

After that, Wong Lo Kat started selling herbal tea as suggested by Lin Zexu. To encourage Wong Lo Kat, Lin Zexu specially presented a large copper gourd pot engraved with the character “Wong Lo Kat”. Due to its reasonable price and adherence to the principles of herbal medicine, Wong Lo Kat became famous far and wide. In terms of content, we start from the perspective of user needs and we either create the kind of content that users want to see or we let users create content for us. For example, in the content co-creation with bilibili, we received 888 submissions and the quality of the work was quite high, in some cases even better than what some professional advertising companies have given us. And it’s also more popular with users. In the end, we selected the top 10 images from the submissions and made them into Wong Lo Kat custom cans, and then gave them to these users. One of the reasons why the "Surname Can" has been so well received is that we have made it and users can go and buy it because they feel it’s fun. In May, the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission ruled that Hung To should cease use of the Wong Lo Kat brand and Guangzhou Pharma could assume all rights to the trademark.

After Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Group took over the red cans of Wanglaoji, it recruited troops to build sales channels in various markets. With the philosophy of “helping the world” advocated by Chenliji 400 years ago, Guangzhou Pharmaceutical remains at the forefront of TCM development and introduces a popular version of TCM to the world, through the very same window where Western medicine first entered China. It is precisely because of its weak brand personality that many sub-brands occupy a certain low-end market in the market. But the competition between the two companies shows that a name is nothing without the support of strong marketing and distribution. JDB Group is marching ahead with a new brand name, while Wong Lo Kat is languishing amid a public perception that it is no longer the product consumers once loved.

McCain GmbH is the proprietor of the 3D-trademark shown below, protected for pre-fried potato croquettes and frozen mashed potato products in class 29. In 2018, Agrarfrost GmbH & Co KG filed a revocation application against this trademark with the EUIPO on the grounds of non-use, which the Cancellation Division rejected in 2020. The appeal filed against this by the applicant was unsuccessful. The inherent distinctiveness of a registered trademark could not be called into question in revocation proceedings due to the presumption of validity. Furthermore, the trademark proprietor had succeeded in proving that it had used the trademark in a manner that preserved its rights. The applicant then brought an action against the Board of Appeal (BoA) decision before the EUGC claiming that the BoA had carried out an inadequate examination of the degree of distinctiveness and had wrongly assessed the evidence submitted. The German Federal Patent Court (BPatG) dealt with the exploitation of the reputation of the trademark "ROLEX" by the application for the sign "ROLESS FURNISHING" for goods in Classes 2, 19 and 20, including paints, metal foils for painters, statues and busts made of stone, concrete or marble, office furniture and wardrobes. The German Patent and Trademark Office (DPMA) had previously partially upheld the opposition on the grounds that some of the goods claimed by the application mark could constitute works of fine art, which, like luxury watches, could be treated as investments, status symbols or collectors' items. However, this assumption would not apply to all the goods covered by the mark applied for. Recently, Chinese medicinal tea has taken the world by storm. It started with sour plum soup and TCM milk tea going viral overnight followed by the release of the new overseas brand “WALOVI” by the Chinese herbal tea pioneer Wong Lo Kat. Traditional Chinese medicine gaining increasing popularity is the result of time-honored TCM brands seeking a youth-oriented strategy. And Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Holdings Limited (GPHL) is certainly leading the trend.In the first half of 2023, Guangzhou Pharmaceutical saw a significant growth in the TCM and FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods) sales, with the health sector featuring the Wong Lo Kat brand raking in over 7 billion yuan, representing a year-on-year growth of 8.1%.
