A court in South China's Guangdong Province Thursday ruled that Hong Kong-based JDB Group is not allowed to use slogans indicating its new Jiaduobao herbal tea is the same product as the previous Wong Lo Kat tea.
The Wong Lo Kat brand is currently owned by Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Holdings. In 1997, the Guangzhou-based company granted JDB the right to use its Wong Lo Kat trademark until 2010.
