Kaki-no-Tane

Kaki-no-Tane is a rice snack that I have been familiar with since I was little.
I went to buy some Kaki-no-Tane to see the position trademark registered by Kameda Seika Co., Ltd.
There are several kinds of Kaki-no-Tane, and on every package, there was the same trademark.

Kaki-no-Tane

The text trademark on the package I bought this time is “Kameda Seika Kameda no Kaki-no-Tane” by Kameda Seika Corporation, Japanese trademark registration No. 4991187, registered on September 29, 2006.

The position trademark for Kameda Seika Co., Ltd. is Japanese Trademark Registration No. 5873740, registered on August 12, 2016.
Comparing the content of the currently registered positional trademark with the packaging I bought this time, the part that says “consisting of a figure attached to the upper left portion of a packaging container for rice crackers or bean confectioneries” and the part that says “a horizontal hexagon with a red bold line” are the same as the registered positional trademark, but the part that says “a vertical short ribbon shape in blue and the portions bordering both its left and right sides in white” is different.
The upper left part of the package I bought this time was not a ribbon shape, but a trapezoidal shape.

I thought that the positional trademark was easy to impress with its shape and color. Next time I buy Kaki-no-Tane, I would like to look at the trademark on the packaging. (Raspberry)
