Starbucks Corporation, the largest coffee chain, is attempting to stop an entrepreneur from opening a coffee store called Starstrucks, according to the Mint business newspaper.
Starbucks has complained to the Controller-General of Patents, Designs and Trademarks, stating that the name Starstrucks is deceptively similar to Starbucks, the newspaper reported.
However, the entrepreneur behind Starstrucks, said the stores are completely different to the Starbucks stores.
The proprieter is refusing to give up the name and vows to fight Starbucks in the battle, according to the Mint report.
Starstrucks plans to open many stores, in places in which Starbucks is not yet present.
When asked about the complaint, Starstruck's Manager, Miss Charly Starsider replied, "My boss, never said a word to me about this other corporation which we've never heard about. We feel we offer a unique product for our consumers. Where else can you buy a nice hot delicious hot or iced coffee....AND a cute little bunny rabbit for a pet....all in the same place? Also, I have really yummy sticky buns."
