Denner may sell capsules for Nespresso machines again
Denner is once again allowed to sell its coffee capsules, which are also compatible with Nespresso machines. The St. Gallen Commercial Court announced on Friday that it had partially lifted the super-provisional sales ban issued on January 10.
According to the ruling, Denner may once again offer the cheaper competitor capsules. The statement "Compatible with Nespresso machines" in advertising and on packaging is also permitted again, provided the lettering is small. The advertising slogan "Denner - was suscht?" remains prohibited. On this point, the St. Gallen Commercial Court has confirmed its Order dated January 10 confirmed.
Denner has now stopped "waiting and drinking tea" - this is how Vizner Borel commented on the court ruling in January on behalf of the discounter. The decision from Friday will be communicated in a similar way at the beginning of next week, as Nicole Schöwel, Head of Communications at Denner, told Werbewoche. They are currently working "at full speed" on this - but it will probably not be enough for the Sunday press.
Production of the capsules, which had to be halted due to the super-provisional order, is expected to resume as early as next Monday. Further advertising measures can be expected as soon as sufficient quantities can be offered again.
