Claimant sought to register mark for ‘retail trade in building, home improvement and gardening goods for the home improvement sector’.
Is possible to obtain trade mark in respect of provision of retail services.
However particular type of goods to which service relates must be specified.
“Retail services” does not just include act of selling goods; includes e.g.:
Selection of goods
Provision of services designed to induce customer to buy their products at C’s store rather than at a competitor
Therefore no need to restrict definition of services so as to exclude ‘retail services’
