Trademark - Dosenbach and Deichmann

     If you live in Switzerland, you would see this logo associated with the store chain Dosenbach.



     I was recently in Germany, and I saw what appeared to be the identical logo.

 

However, it was associated with a shoe chain called Deichmann. I assumed that the store chains were related, and research confirmed it. Deichmann acquired Dosenbach in 1973 (see Dosenbach link, Wikipedia link). How fortunate was that acquisition? Deichmann acquired a competitor with a name that started with a "D". Now, it could use the same logo for both businesses create a connection between the businesses / brands (see my posts on Aquafresh / Odol-med3 and Crest / Blend-a-Med for examples of how businesses created connections between their brands).

Warning notices

     I was at Burger King restaurant in Switzerland and I bought a kid's meal. It came with a toy that was packaged in a plastic bag, and there were, of course, the required warning notices -- in 21 languages.
