Treaties, I think
https://www.inta.org/fact-sheets/international-trademark-rights/ https://www.inta.org/fact-sheets/international-trademark-rig...
But also lawsuits.
For example, some years ago the Indian government sued and won a case against a Texas company (owned by the Prince of Liechtenstein) that got a patent on Basmati rice:

After the patent was revoked, they renamed it "Texmati". Maybe we'll see a "Texjamon" in the future.
- JumpCrisscross 6y agoWhat prevents the controlled origin authority from registering a trademark? Why can't the Spanish government or the relevant consortium trademark jamón ibérico?
- danans 6y agoNo reason they can't. After all Champagne is protected in that way. Perhaps they just ... didn't?
