XAI XAI SOUTH AFRICAN WINEBAR

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “XAI XAI SOUTH AFRICAN WINEBAR” is dead, having been cancelled because the owner, TANYA HIRA, failed to file a declaration under Section 8. The mark was registered on the Principal Register in December 2009 for class 043, covering wine bars. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the restaurant and hotel services area, specifically for wine‑bar operations. This record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “XAI XAI” or “SOUTH AFRICAN WINEBAR”; it only covers the specific goods listed. The prosecution history shows the mark was approved for publication, published for opposition, and eventually registered before cancellation. No oppositions, extensions, or court actions appear, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. If you’re thinking of a similar name, be aware that the cancelled registration still signals a prior claim in the wine‑bar sector, and the owner may still assert rights in that narrow field.
