The High Court has ruled that Aldi infringed the design of Marks & Spencer‘s light-up Christmas gin bottles. This means that Aldi could have to pay damages to M&S or pass on profits from sales of the product. Aldi has said it will appeal against the judgment.
The case was the latest legal dispute between the companies, after M&S had previously accused Aldi of copying the design of its Colin the Caterpillar cake. This case settled in 2022.
