The "infringing party" has existed and used this logo since a good 50 years before Apple Inc was founded.
I kinda hope the Swiss Apple company turns this around and sues Apple for trademark infringement, since they can prove using it for longer, and according to Apples own argument, the fact that they're in completely different industries apparently doesn't matter.
Would be fun to see Tim Cook announce the new "Banana iPhone" as a result of this suit getting turned around
- Retric 3y agoFirst their isn’t a lawsuit, just someone concerned about hypotheticals. Neither party is infringing until Apple sells actual fruit or the fruit company starts making tablets etc. The only point of contention is likely Apple making Movies and other entertainment which could create conflict if the fruit company wants to make a documentary at some point in the future.
