Volvo Trademark Holding AB is equally owned by AB Volvo and Volvo Car Corporation.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www3.volvo.com/investors/finrep/eng/html/thevolvobrandname/ingress.html |title=Volvo Annual Report 1999 |publisher=.volvo.com |access-date=6 November 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120316204702/http://www3.volvo.com/investors/finrep/eng/html/thevolvobrandname/ingress.html |archive-date=16 March 2012 }}</ref>

The main activity of the company is to own, maintain, protect and preserve the Volvo trademarks, including ''Volvo'', the Volvo branding symbols (grille slash and iron mark), ''Volvo Penta'', on behalf of its owners and to license these rights to its owners. The day-to-day work is focused upon maintaining the global portfolio of trademark registrations, and to extend sufficiently the scope of the registered protection for the Volvo trademarks.

The main business is also to act against unauthorised registration and use (including [[counterfeit]]ing) of trademarks identical or similar to the Volvo trademarks on a global basis.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www3.volvo.com/investors/finrep/eng/index.html |title=The Volvo Brand Name, Volvo Annual Report 1999 |publisher=.volvo.com |access-date=6 November 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110717231302/http://www3.volvo.com/investors/finrep/eng/index.html |archive-date=17 July 2011 }}</ref>
