Trademark Advice Oldham

New Balance has won a record payout in a Chinese trademark case after three local shoemakers were found to have infringed the brand’s “N” logo.

A Chinese court awarded the US sportswear firm more than 10 million yuan (£1.2m).

It is believed to be the highest award to a foreign company in a trademark dispute in China.

The country has been tightening its laws to tackle the widespread problem of trademark abuse.
