BRIM'S OLD SOUTH

What this record means

The record shows that “BRIM’S OLD SOUTH” is a dead, cancelled registration on the Principal Register, owned by Joy’s Memphis Sales Co., Inc. The mark covered potato‑based snack foods such as potato chips and hot flavored potato snacks (class 029) and corn‑based snacks like popped popcorn and cheese‑flavored puffed corn sticks (class 030). A similar name would raise the closest concern for brands selling those specific snack foods, especially potato or corn‑based chips and popcorn. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only over the goods listed. The prosecution history shows the mark was registered in 1998 and cancelled in 2005 for failure to file a Section 8 declaration; no opposition or enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the cancellation on February 12, 2005. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the goods listed remain a potential point of concern.
