The difference between registered trademark and company name, company name and trademark name are completely different.
The company name can continue to be used. Have you registered the trademark? If you don't register, let others register, then others have the right to prevent you from using this trademark.
Can others take the same company name after registering a trademark? The company name is restricted by the administrative region, and it is not protected beyond the administrative region. In other words, if you have a strong food company in this city, others can also set up a strong food company in other cities, unless your company can meet the following conditions:
1, national company;
2. Large import and export enterprises approved by the State Council or its authorized organs;
3. Large enterprise groups approved by the State Council or its authorized organs;
4. Other enterprises as stipulated by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce;
5. Well-known brand enterprises with a long history;
6. Foreign-invested enterprises;
An enterprise or company that meets one of the above conditions does not have the name of its administrative region, so no one in China can use the same company name as you, but there is no explicit provision on the Internet. Anyone can use the same company name in a chaotic situation. The question is whether this is true or not.

A trademark is a logo that has been registered with the State Trademark Office, and the company logo is the general name of all company logos including trademark design.

Trademarks approved for registration by the Trademark Office are registered trademarks, including commodity trademarks, service trademarks, collective trademarks and certification trademarks; Trademark registrants enjoy the exclusive right to use trademarks and are protected by law.

What's the difference between a registered company and a brand name? The company name and trademark name are different.
There are many similarities in legal protection between enterprise names and registered trademarks. Both of them are distinguishing signs used in production and business activities, and they are endowed with exclusive rights by law to ensure the quality of goods and services, safeguard the reputation of enterprises and protect the interests of consumers. And in some cases, they are combined into one, such as the famous Lenovo and Haier, which are both trademarks and the core of enterprise names-font size. But we can't confuse trademarks with enterprise names because of this. After all, they are two different concepts, and the main difference lies in:
First, the registration basis is different. Registered trademarks are registered in accordance with the provisions of the Trademark Law, and enterprise names are registered in accordance with the Company Law, the Law on Enterprises with Foreign Investment, the Law on Sino-foreign Joint Ventures, the Law on Chinese-foreign Cooperative Ventures, the Law on Sole proprietorship Enterprises, and the Provisions on the Administration of Enterprise Name Registration.
Second, the acquisition methods are different. China implements the principle of combining voluntary registration with compulsory registration for trademarks. The practice is that, except for some goods that must use registered trademarks according to regulations, the trademark of general goods adopts the principle of voluntary registration, that is, registered goods can enjoy the exclusive right, while unregistered goods can still be used, but they do not enjoy the exclusive right; For the enterprise name, it is not allowed to use the name without approval and registration, and it does not enjoy the right to name.
Third, the characteristics and contents of rights are different. Trademark right is a kind of industrial property right, which only has the characteristics of property right and has no personal right, while the right of enterprise name is a right with both personal right and property right. Therefore, the enterprise name right is generally not allowed to be transferred separately or licensed to others.
