The mega travel center chain Buc-ee's continues to file lawsuits against businesses for trademark infringement while a local business that settled with the giant corporation celebrates its rebranding.
It was in 2024 that the company located in Lake Jackson, Texas brought a suit against the owners of Duckees Drive-Thru in Kimberling City, claiming that businesses duck logo to closely resembled their beaver logo. The two sides settled the lawsuit last year.
The local business, which sells alcohol and food products, is now know as Duck N Go Drive-Thru and they are holding a ribbon cutting through the Table Rock Lake Chamber of Commerce to celebrate their rebranding on Friday. An Open House is from 3:00 to 6:00 pm with the ribbon cutting at 4:00 at the store located on Highway 13 according to a chamber release.
Meanwhile Buc-ee's continues to be involved with other lawsuits involving trademark infringement. Jeff Monosso of FOX News Radio, during an interview on KRZK's "Ozarks Now" program, said that the latest suit is against Beaver's Mini Mart in rural Beavercreek, Ohio.
Monosso said that while Buc-ee's continues to get national pushback on the lawsuits, he adds this issue has a different twist in that Buc-ee's was not looking at action against this business until their owners announced they had filed a federal trademark application for BeaverMart.
