Dohse acquires trademarks and brands from Dupla

Dohse Aquaristik has acquired all intangible rights along with national and international trademarks and brands from the insolvent Dupla GmbH, thereby ensuring the survival of the “Dupla” brand. The former managing director of Dupla GmbH, Jörg Plöger, has been appointed sales manager at Dohse Aquaristik with responsibility for the overall range. “Dupla” will be marketed alongside “Hobby” as Dohse’s second in-house brand of aquatics products, with both brands being supplied together by Dohse’s field sales force from January 2004.
