Trademark Law: Providing food and drink at a store and selling takeout products are in different categories

In many cases, those operating restaurants have secured trademark rights for the designated service of providing food and drink.

However, the sale of takeout products cannot be covered by the designated service of providing food and drink.

To put it another way, you do not hold trademark rights for the sale of takeout products.

For this reason, there is a possibility that another company that acquired trademark rights after your business started could point out trademark infringement, leading to a lawsuit.

If you intend to expand your business in the future, I believe you should consider securing trademark rights for the sale of takeout products as well.

In this video as well, specific examples are introduced starting around the 6-minute mark.

Note: I have no conflict of interest with Matsumoto Patent Office.
