THE GROWING CONCERN
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/InvalidatedWhat this record means
The record shows that “THE GROWING CONCERN” was once registered on the Principal Register under serial 73521097, but the registration was cancelled on September 2 2006 because the owner, SORENS PTY. LIMITED, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark covered a wide range of clothing items, from bathing suits and swimwear to jeans, jackets, and sleepwear, all listed under class 025. A new name that is very similar would raise the closest concern in the apparel and clothing sector, especially for items like swimsuits, jeans, or general apparel. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the phrase, only over the specific goods listed. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 cancellation appear in the supplied history. The latest meaningful event is the cancellation in 2006, and no further dates are provided. For someone looking to use a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the broad clothing coverage still suggests a potential concern if the new name is used for similar apparel.
