Warning to ՙOrange Armenia՚
Statement of the juridical office «BRAVE՚ on the usage of trademark ՙOrange mobile՚
The Statement says:
"The September 1 statement of ՙOrange Armenia՚ Company says that international trademark ՙOrange՚ was registered by ՙFrance Telecom՚ in the Republic of Armenia in 2001.
"Juridical office «BRAVE՚ which represents the interest of "Colourful Mobile" LLC welcomes ՙOrange՚ into the Republic of Armenia and does not dispute the lawfulness of registration of ՙOrange՚ international trademark.
"As to the subject matter, we would like to inform that ՙOrange mobile՚ trademark is registered by "Colourful Mobile" LLC in the Intellectual Property Agency of the Republic of Armenia in a manned prescribed by the RA legislation. The Company has been selling mobile phones and accessories under trademark ՙOrange mobile՚ since 2006 and is the leading company in the market.
"Taking into account the fact that trademarks ՙOrange՚ & ՙOrange mobile՚ are confusingly similar within the meaning of the RA Civil Code, juridical office «BRAVE՚ asks ՙOrange Armenia՚ to refrain from conducting any transactions connected with the sale of mobile phones and accessories under trademark ՙOrange՚, in order to avoid legal problems and not to harm the business reputation in the RA market."
