LG Jeonja Joo-Sik-Hoi-Sa (LG Electronics Inc.)'s application, Registrar's Decision (Hong Kong), 25 January 2008

The Registrar refused registration of the word CHOCOLATE as a trade mark in respect of ‘portable communications apparatus’ on the basis that the mark was devoid of any distinctive character and consisted exclusively of a sign which may serve in trade to designate the characteristics of the goods for which registration of the mark was sought.
