Charbucks, anyone?

Posted on January 13th, 2006

After 10 long years, a small company in New Hampshire has been cleared to continue using the name Charbucks for its coffee. The New York federal court ruled that the market would not be confused between Starbucks and Charbucks, and that Starbucks hadn’t proven that the other name tarnished its brand.

Hmmmm…wonder how their coffee stacks up?
