They serve different purposes. Company-name registration identifies a corporate entity, while trademark protection is concerned with protecting a mark used to distinguish goods or services.

Registering a company does not automatically give the same protection as registering a trademark. If the brand itself is commercially important, consider trademark protection in the relevant classes.
