Class 46 - for your European trade mark news

Now in its second year, Class 46 is dedicated to European trade mark law and practice. This weblog is written by a team of enthusiasts who want to spread the word and share their thoughts with others.


	MONDAY, 23 NOVEMBER 2009 McDonald's goes green - literally McDonald's has been working on its image as a "green" company for some time, and it gets some credit for its efforts by some environmental groups. However, in a move that I would find hard to believe if today's date was 1 April, McDonald's has announced that it will turn literally green in Germany: the Golden Arch will be used on a green background in German McDonald's restaurants. Holger Beeck, Vice-President of McDonald's Germany, has announced the move, which should signal McD's commitment to ecological principles, in an interview with the Financial Times Germany. Note that the image above is a crude 2-minute job by me; no images of the actual new logo have surfaced yet. Posted by: Mark Schweizer @ 13.38 Tags: branding, color,,
