FIDES
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “FIDES” is no longer active; it was cancelled on May 3 2024 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The owner listed is DÜMMEN GROUP B.V., a private limited liability company organized in the Netherlands. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 031, covering agricultural, horticultural and forestry products, specifically live plants and live flowers such as chrysanthemums. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same category of live plant products, especially chrysanthemums, but the cancellation means the owner no longer has enforceable rights under this record. The prosecution history shows the mark was initially allowed, then renewed, and finally cancelled; no opposition or court actions are recorded. The last maintenance event was the cancellation itself. For anyone thinking of using “FIDES” in a related plant‑product line, the record suggests a meaningful risk of confusion with the former registered mark.
