YELLOWSerial 78490508 · Principal Register
Live · Registered
Owner: YRC WORLDWIDE INC.
Class 039 -
Filed Sep 28, 2004
Registered Aug 11, 2009
The record shows that “YELLOW” is a live Principal Register service mark owned by YRC WORLDWIDE INC., a Delaware corporation, and it was renewed most recently on April 5 2019. The registration covers “Domestic and international common carrier freight transportation by means of truck, air, or sea, and domestic and international freight forwarding services” in International Class 039, so a similar name used in the trucking, shipping or freight‑forwarding business would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give YRC WORLDWIDE INC. control over every use of the word “YELLOW” in unrelated fields. There is no prosecution history indicating a Supplemental Register filing, and no oppositions, cancellations or court actions appear in the supplied history. Because the latest status event is the 2019 renewal, the mark remains active, and the visible history shows no enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use “YELLOW” for freight or logistics services.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
