FORTITEC

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “FORTITEC” was registered on the Principal Register on January 19, 1993, but it was cancelled on October 8, 2015 because the owner, LAND O’LAKES PURINA FEED LLC, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark covered swine feeds (Class 031) and the first use was November 27, 1991. Because the cancellation was due to a maintenance failure, the mark is no longer active and does not give the owner control over the wording in any context. The closest record‑based concern would arise if a new mark were used for swine feeds or related livestock nutrition products, as that is the exact scope of the cancelled mark. No enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations after publication appears in the supplied history. The latest meaningful event was the cancellation in 2015. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk of infringement, but the specific goods of swine feeds remain the most relevant area of concern.
