		Eroski is the largest Spanish-owned retail food chain and the fourth largest retail group in Spain.
		By the 1980's, Eroski had grown to be the largest regional food retail chain in the Basque region, but competition was growing both from within Spain and from the French retail giants.

	Basque Research
		For their brand products the Eroski Group has developed and introduced a series of Food Safety control techniques and guarantees which are pioneer in Europe.
		Maximum safety for the consumer is a philosophy that has taken the Eroski Group to develop a strategy for food safety control which goes beyond the parameters set down by legislation, enabling the control of pathogenic agents which pose a health risk and which, nevertheless, are not covered by current legislation.
		In fact, the detection of adulterations or fraudulent substitutions is currently a headache for food standards laboratories, particularly so in those foodstuffs which have been subjected to processes which lead to the denaturation of their proteins.

		From consulting websites, as it would be “fundaciongrupoeroski.es” and “eroski.es,” Grupo Eroski (Eroski Group) can be perceived, as an entity controlling a number of businesses and trademarks.
		Perhaps, there would be no doubt that EROSKI can be regarded as a well-known trademark, but Complainant did not clearly show the same for VISTOBUENO.
		However, this is not to say that bad faith cannot be found in a case in which the mark has not been regarded to be wellknown.
