Food Giant
Our lawyer has made a search of the German registries, and has found out that the word "Cabana" is already registered as a traemark of one of the international food giants. He seems to think that it may be a problem for us later, if this German subsidiary of one of America's largest food companies decides to sue us over the use of the word Cabana. But, I don't know. Cabana is a common word, it is in the dictionary, it means cabin, small house, home, cottage, hut, etc. Why should it be forbidden to use a combination word which includes cabana. After all, can someone patent the word "Deutsche"? If so, how come there is Deutsche Bank, Deutsche Krankenversicherung? Deutsche Lufthansa, Deutsche Welle, and many others? I think lawyers must be very careful, sometimes to the point of being overly conservative. I sent him an email, he will answer soon. I'll let you know.
