Burton's Foods trademark dispute against Boxer Superstores dismissed

Burton's Foods, which sells biscuits under the branding Wagon Wheels, turned to court to stop a competitor also using the branding Wheels on its biscuit packaging. Image: Online The wording 'Wheels' in relation to biscuits came under the legal spotlight after a company selling biscuits under the name 'Wagon Wheels' objected to a competitor wanting to register its biscuits using the name 'Wheels' on its packaging. Burton's Foods turned to the Gauteng High Court, Pretoria, as it is opposing two trademark applications filed by Boxer Superstores under the Trade Marks Act, to enable it to use the word 'Wheels' on its biscuits. Burton's Foods asked the court for an order refusing Boxer Superstores' trademark applications and directing that the trademark applications be removed from the register. Burton's Foods opposition is premised on the contention that the respondent's trademark is highly similar to theirs, and that it covers goods that are identical, or at least highly similar. For that reason, the applicant said, the use of the respondent's trademark would lead to confusion or deception among consumers, as the trademarks are so similar. Video Player is loading.

Chery Tiggo 4 will land with a very sharp price

Chery New Zealand has confirmed pricing and specifications for its compact SUV, the Chery Tiggo 4, ahead of its official local launch in July 2025. With prices starting from just $24,990 plus on-road costs, the new model aims to shake up the value end of the small SUV segment. Two trim levels will be offered: the entry-level Urban and the better-equipped Ultimate, both powered by a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine producing 108kW and 210Nm. The Tiggo 4 has already made waves across the Tasman since launching in Australia in late 2024, winning accolades such as Wheels' Best Small SUV: Best Value and Drive's Best Urban Car Under $30k . The Urban model features 17-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights and taillights, a dual 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and multimedia touchscreen, and wired/wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It also includes a six-speaker sound system, voice command system ('Hello Chery'), seven airbags, a reverse camera, and Chery's full suite of ADAS safety systems.

'With modern features, outstanding ownership benefits and an unbeatable value proposition, the Tiggo 4 will hit the mark for Kiwi families and first-time SUV buyers alike.' Backing the local launch is a network of 10 dealerships nationwide, offering full sales and aftersales support. With a five-star ANCAP safety rating and sharp pricing, the Chery Tiggo 4 looks set to be a compelling new player in New Zealand's compact SUV market.
