Most of the trademarks I work on are for companies you never heard of. (They need trademarks too.) But there's the ramen noodle company you have all seen in the stores and some high end French luxury goods houses you might be aware of. Stuff like that. Nothing really too interesting.

Today, however, I renewed a trademark for a famous rock and roll band that sings about stairways to heaven.

But it's just paper shuffling.

I haven't seen the ramen noodle company I know the name of in stores in quite a while. When I see ramen in stores, I always notice that it isn't Nissin, but never make a note of what it is.


I guess Nissin had a strong trademark game, but not so much of a shelfspace game, at least in my local supermarket.

In the stores around here, if it's not Nissin, it's Maruchan.

I think the Nissin is much better.

We don't have Nissin in the brick form in our local Safeway, but we have Nissin in the cup noodles form.

I might be mis-remembering but I feel like Campbell’s was in the ramen game several years ago with a healthier baked ramen. They were pretty bad and expensive for a ramen IIRC.
