Trademark
The dispute came from Kerry Luxembourg, part of the Kerry Group, who claimed that its trademark on the Angelito brand had been infringed.
It was said that Perfect Foods had engaged in ‘passing off acts’ by launching a soft ice-cream under the name Angelita in a similar fashion to Angelito.
A fast-track application had been adjourned to allow both parties to talk before the trial.
It ended up being struck out in court, as representatives for the groups informed the judge that they were happy that the matter was resolved.
Perfect Foods offered signed undertakings, including a cease and desist using the Angelita mark.
