June 21, 2023. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Mexican Institute of Industrial Property (IMPI) declared Zwan and KIR famous trademarks, and Peperami, Caperucita and Conchitas notorious trademarks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zwan, KIR, Peperami and Caperucita are trademarks of Qualtia, and Conchitas of BYDSA; and both companies are part of Xignux, a leader in the energy and food industries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The declaration of \u201cFamous Trademark\u201d or \u201cNotorious Trademark\u201d is a product of consumer recognition, and grants special protection in the market. According to the Industrial Property Law, a \u201cFamous Trademark\u201d is known by the majority of the consuming public and has a diffusion or recognition in global commerce. Receiving this award is also proof of the quality of the product and its permanence in the market. On the other hand, a \u201cNotorious Trademark\u201d is known when a certain sector of the public or the country&#8217;s commercial circles knows the trademark because of its promotion or advertising.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The transcendence, continuous use and consumer taste were the elements that contributed to the IMPI&#8217;s recognition as prestigious trademarks. These recognitions distinguish the trajectory and quality of the products, in addition to favoring the positioning of Xignux in the food industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to IMPI data, there are 1,453,914 registered trademarks in Mexico, of which approximately 81 have been declared \u201cFamous Trademarks\u201d, and only 31 are recognized as \u201cNotorious Trademarks\u201d.
