Jiaduobao's slogan "every 10 cans of herbal tea sold in China, 7 cans of jiaduobao" once again "angered" Wang Laoji On August 6, the Guangzhou intermediate people's court held a hearing on the case of Wang Laoji of Guangyao suing jiaduobao for unfair competition Wang Laoji of Guangyao asked jiaduobao to stop using such propaganda words as "every 10 cans of herbal tea sold in China, 7 cans of jiaduobao" However, the reporter found in a newspaper in Guangzhou that day that Wang Laoji's advertisement said that "from January 2012 to June 2013, Wang Laoji's market share was close to 70%, becoming a worthy leader in the herbal tea market" Who is the king of herbal tea? Guangyao Wang Laoji and Jia Duobao also launched a fierce "debate" at the scene of the hearing The two sides competed for the king of herbal tea at the hearing site, and one of the focuses of the dispute between the two sides was who was the king of herbal tea The lawyer of Guangzhou Wanglaoji Health Industry Co., Ltd and Guangyao Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd., one of the plaintiffs, denied that "for every 10 cans of herbal tea and 7 cans of jiaduobao sold in China, more people would drink jiaduobao for fear of being inflamed, and the red cans of herbal tea with the leading sales volume in China are jiaduobao Jiaduobao herbal tea is far ahead Jiaduobao herbal tea has been the first can of Chinese beverage for six consecutive years " In this regard, the acting lawyer of jiaduobao believes that "every 10 cans of herbal tea sold in China, 7 cans of jiaduobao" is a fact, and has provided authoritative data from China's industry enterprise information center and Nielsen to prove it According to the data provided by it, the data released by the China industry enterprise information release center of the National Bureau of statistics in March this year shows that: from July to December 2012, the red pot herbal tea produced and sold by jiaduobao accounted for more than 80% of the market share of the canned herbal tea, ranking first in the herbal tea industry In addition, Cadbury also provided data provided by Nielsen research agency Since Cadbury launched its own brand in May 2012, the market share of Cadbury canned herbal tea during this period reached 81.7% However, for this data, the plaintiff Guangyao and Wang Laoji think that the above data take away the shares originally belonging to Wang Laoji, and say that "from January to September 2012, China sold 10 cans of herbal tea and 7 cans of Wang Laoji instead of jiaduobao" Who are the victims in the process of competing for the king of herbal tea, Guangyao, Wang Laoji and Jia Duobao all said they were "very hurt" Guangyao and Wanglaoji think that jiaduobao's unfair competition means have damaged its trademark and well-known commodity's unique name, illegally transferred the intangible assets attached to Wanglaoji's trademark and unique name, devalued Wanglaoji's reputation, and infringed its fair competition rights and interests in the market According to gadobo, once the "ban in litigation" is implemented, it will also make the relevant public think that Guangdong gadobo company and its related enterprises have made false publicity The red pot herbal tea with the leading sales volume in China is not produced by gadobo, and may even think that gadobo company sells and produces counterfeit goods, which will damage gadobo's reputation and bring irreparable results Losses In addition, the gadobo side has come up with specific figures On January 31 this year, Guangzhou intermediate court announced that jiaduobao would stop using the slogan "the red pot herbal tea with the leading sales volume in China will be renamed as jiaduobao" This is the first time that gadobo has been "banned in litigation" According to the company, the "ban in litigation" has caused direct losses of more than 1 billion yuan to the company However, if the "ban in litigation" is implemented again this time, the cumulative direct losses this year will be more than 2 billion yuan The market war escalated the fierce debate between the two sides in the court, while the war between the two companies outside the court was also raging The reporter found in a newspaper in Guangzhou on the same day that Wang Laoji advertised that "from January 2012 to June 2013, Wang Laoji's market share was close to 70%, becoming a worthy leader of the herbal tea market", and that jiaduobao was suspected of false propaganda In the article, in response to the media claim that Cadbury has provided more than 800 million yuan of business tax for its black pot herbal tea in one year, Wang Laoji claims that the company's sales in the first half of the year was 7.5 billion yuan, while the tax paid was 600 million yuan However, a person familiar with the matter disclosed to the reporter that Guangyao's said tax revenue of more than 600 million yuan includes VAT, business tax and other taxes of Dahui and Wanglaoji Co., Ltd at the same time, its products span dozens of three categories including food, medicine and health care products, and the vat of red pot for the whole year cannot be compared with that of jiaduobao at all Wang Yuegui, deputy general manager of brand management department of Cadbury group, said it was inconvenient to comment on the tax war caused by the "ban in litigation" At the same time, he called on the enterprises in the herbal tea industry to compete fairly and orderly.
