Diprotes Starbucks, logo Pecel Lele Lela diganti

24 - September - 2014
JAKARTA. Jaringan kedai kopi global asal Amerika Serikat, Starbucks Coffee Company memprotes gambar logo Pecel Lele Lela milik Rangga Umara pada Desember 2011 lalu. Soalnya logo Pecel Lele dianggap memiliki persamaan pada pokoknya dengan logo milik Starbucks dalam bentuk dan warna.
 
Kuasa hukum Starbucks Lenny Huang dari kantor hukum Suryomurcito & Co mengatakan, pihaknya sebelumnya sudah mengirim surat peringatan pertama kepada Rangga, pemilik Pecel Lele Lela. Dilanjutkan dengan pembicaraan via telepon dan tatap muka.
Lantas sebelum perkara tersebut sempat bergulir di Pengadilan Niaga Jakarta Pusat, Rangga menunjukkan sikap kooperatif dan itikad baik. Dimana setelah melakukan mediasi hampir dua bulan, akhirnya Rangga setuju mengubah brand logo miliknya. Inilah sebabnya masalah ini tidak sampai ke ranah hukum.
 
Persetujuan tersebut ditandatangani Rangga pada 1 Januari 2012 lalu. "Waktu itu kami sepakat bahwa Pak Rangga akan mengubah semua logo gerai pecel lele miliknya dan mitranya selama enam bulan sejak adanya agreement tersebut," ujar Lenny kepada KONTAN, Rabu (17/9).
Namun karena gerai franchise Pecel Lele ini cukup banyak yakni 87 cabang yang tersebar di seluruh Indonesia dan di Malaysia, maka proses pengubahan logo pun molor hingga bulan September 2014. Dalam proses itu, Lenny bilang Rangga juga telah kembali mendaftarkan logo barunya ke Direktur Jenderal Hak Kekayaan Intelektual dan menghapus pendaftaran logo lama yang menyerupai logo Starbucks.
 
Tapi realisasi pergantian logo di lapangan berjalan lambat karena beberapa mitra enggan mengubah logo karena masih baru buka usaha. "Jadi para mitranya berpikir kalau cepat mengubah logo bisa dianggap tidak serius oleh konsumen," terangnya.
Lenny melanjutkan, perubahan logo gerai terakhir dilakukan pada Senin, 15 September 2014 pekan ini di gerai daerah Serpong dan Margonda, Depok. Perubahan tersebut dilakukan oleh PT Dong Han Indonesia asal Jakarta.
 
Terkait perubahan logo tersebut, Rangga telah menyampaikan pernyataan tertulis pada bulan Agustus 2014 lalu. Dalam pernyataannya tersebut, ia menegaskan telah memiliki logo baru. Hal itu dilakukan setelah melakukan mediasi dengan pihak kuasa hukum Starbucks karena logo lama miliknya memiliki kesamaan dengan logo Starbucks.
 
"Pecel Lele Lela secara resmi mengumumkan peluncuran logo baru yang telah direvisi," ujar Rangga seperti dikutip dari pernyataan tertulisnya yang diperoleh KONTAN. Terkait hal ini, KONTAN sudah mencoba menghubungi nomor telpon Rangga namun tidak aktif.

Copyright as an Intangible Movable Property: Understanding Tangible and Intangible Value

By: Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. In Intellectual Property law practice, one of the most common misconceptions is the view that possession of a physical object is identical to possession of all rights attached to that object. For example, purchasing a painting is often understood as a basis for reproducing that painting. Similarly, receiving the source code of a computer...

Copyright, Creator, and Ownership of Computer Programs in the Indonesian Legal Perspective

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H.

In business practice, these three concepts are often treated as...

When Form Becomes Identity: Understanding 3D Brands and Industrial Design in Branding Strategy

  Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. The development of intellectual property law shows that the identity of a trademark is no longer limited to just a name, writing, or two-dimensional logo. In commercial practice, certain product shapes and packaging often have a stronger distinctive power than the brand name itself. Consumers in many situations can recognize the origin of...

  Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. The concept of a "well-known mark" is one of the most important concepts in trademark law, yet it is also one of the most difficult to define absolutely. Almost all trademark legal systems in various countries recognize it as a basis for broader legal protection for a mark that has a strong reputation. However, interestingly,...

When Market Perceptions Change and Global Brand Giants Fall

  Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. Not a few major global brands were once considered too strong to be defeated. These names not only dominated the market but also shaped consumption culture, social status symbols, and even the identity of certain generations. However, business history shows that no matter how strong a brand's power, it can still decline when companies...

Brand as a Composition: Harmony of Sound, Color, Form, and Social Resonance in Architecture

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. When dissected more deeply, a brand is not merely a trade name or a visual symbol that functions to differentiate one product from another. In a much more complex dimension, the process of brand formation is actually very similar to the birth of a musical work. Just as a song is composed through the harmony of notes, rhythm, tempo, emotional...

Viral Brands Are No Accident: Branding Entry Strategies in Creating Market Explosions

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. Not a few people assume that a brand goes viral solely due to luck, social media momentum, or a fleeting trend. However, in contemporary branding practices, virality is often the result of a perception strategy consciously designed from the outset. Some brands are even intentionally shaped to become public talking points before their products are...

Dr. Ichwan Anggawirya, S.Sn., S.H., M.H. In contemporary branding practices, there is an interesting phenomenon where some companies build their brand identity through words that are linguistically considered non-standard, unusual, or appear as deviations from commonly known spellings.
