Two different trademarks (trade names) for the same medical device?

If you don’t have your own brand, it’s just like a manufacturer or an OEM. For example, there are many clothing processing factories in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The styles of clothes are similar, but the brands are different, and the brand owners are mostly independent sellers. The description and model of your question are basically this situation. Your special point is that the products are all the same. If the market is different, it will be fine. If you encounter competition in the same region, then consumers will have questions. When the quality of the products is the same, both parties will have to fight for relationships or price wars. In such a cycle, the lower the profit of ab, it will in turn require you to lower the price, causing the market to become narrower and narrower, which will ultimately affect you. This way the market is in the hands of others, and your own control will be very low. Of course, the advantage is that the market doesn’t have to worry about it. You can produce as many orders as they have, so the investment is relatively small and the risk is small.

For people like you, it is common now to have your own brand, register the trademark, set a unified price, and then let ab be the distributor. The distributors will delimit the sales area and do not form a competitive relationship with each other. You have more control, but the disadvantage is that you have to participate in the market and even plan. At the same time, you have to decide the production volume yourself, and as the investment increases, the risks will also increase.

If you still insist on the former, you must let them negotiate the sales area, sales price and other matters, otherwise there will be chaos later.
