Genericized trademark - European Union
Since 2003 the European Union has actively sought to restrict the use of geographical indications by third parties outside the EU. Although a GI for specialty food or drink may be generic, a GI is not a trademark because it does not serve to exclusively identify a specific commercial enterprise, and therefore cannot constitute a genericized trademark.
The extension of protection for geographical indications is somewhat controversial because a GI may have been registered as a trademark elsewhere. For example, if Parma Ham was part of a trademark registered in Canada by a Canadian manufacturer, ham manufacturers actually located in Parma, Italy might be unable to use this name in Canada.
Other affected products include Champagne, Bordeaux and many other wine names, Roquefort, Parmesan and Feta cheese, and Scotch whisky. In the 1990s the Parma consortium successfully sued the Asda supermarket chain to prevent it using the description Parma ham on prosciutto produced in Parma but sliced outside the region.
