Russian businessmen turned to Rospatent to register the famous brands “Tom Ford” and “Kenzo”, as well as funny inscriptions for souvenir products. The press agency RIA Novosti speaks.

The company “Gifts Wholesale” from the city of Kazan submitted numerous applications to Rospatent on September 1. From the documents, it appeared that they claimed to have recorded a number of signatures: “Crazy Emperor”, “With DR, Stooped Dog”. Thanks for the reason to get drunk. Retirement is coming” and “There are few good people left. Take care of me.”

However, some entrepreneurs are trying to occupy the free space that became available after the departure of foreign brands.

It turned out that the halotherapy center “Territory of Health” in Nizhny Novgorod wants to register the trademark “Tom Ford” and the “First Design Optical Company” from Balashikha wants to obtain the rights to the trademark “Kenzo Luxury”.

According to the state information agency, after visiting the head of the French Ministry of the Armed Forces, Sébastien Lecornu, in Ukraine, the military companies of these countries concluded 16 agreements.
