Why Food & Beverage Businesses Need Trademark Protection
Food brand names are among the most counterfeited in India. Packaged food products, spice brands, and beverages sold under similar names are a common problem. Trademark registration protects your revenue and consumer trust.
Trademark Classes for Food & Beverage Businesses
Filing in the correct class is critical — wrong class = no legal protection for your core business.
Covers coffee, tea, sugar, rice, flour, bread, biscuits, spices, sauces, and most packaged food products — the primary class for food brands.
