The ECJ set out some guidelines for the national courts to consider when addressing this issue, namely; the nature of the
luxury goods bearing the trade mark and the
volumes sold; whether the licensee sold the goods to discount
stores that were not part of the selective distribution network regularly or only occasionally; the nature of the goods normally marketed by those discount
stores; and the marketing methods normally used in that sector of activity.
Strong corporate and
store experience in both
luxury and
volume brands including Pottery Barn Teen, Pottery Barn Kids, Ethan Allen, Gucci, Liz Claiborne, Limited brands, Target and Oscar de La Renta.
