In Poland, the French company trademarks its owns sports brand under the corporate name, Canal+ Sport. Similar to SuperSport, this offering comprises of several TV channels which offer a range of matches mainly UEFA Europa League and Conference League.
Later in the week, it was revealed that these channels had been trademarked under a new package called Super Sport. This offering as seen from not long ago would give consumers an enhanced viewing experience hence "Super Sport".
This offering is said to boast 7 channels with the last 3 available for online streaming as seen with MultiChoice's DStv Stream.
Although the content from the brand in Africa and Poland vary with one getting most major leagues. With MultiChoice soon being owned by Canal+, the name is likely derived from the acquired company although not by style as "Super Sport" is one word in Africa.
Judging by this, it's possible SuperSport could retain its trademark once Canal+ completes its acquisition of MultiChoice. The capacity to its trademark has yet to be known but Poland is now tagged onto this so what fate could await the feeds in Africa.
Could SuperSport become Canal+ Sport? or is a similar fate seen in Poland awaiting Africa where these brands are somewhat unified perhaps to form Canal+ Super(Sport) seeing as they both reside in Africa.
