GMA-SAFE

What this record means

The record shows that GMA‑SAFE, owned by Grocery Manufacturers Association, is a cancelled Principal Register service mark – the registration was cancelled on July 17 2015 because the owner failed to file a required Section 8 declaration, and the status is listed as “dead.” The mark was limited to class 041 educational services, specifically auditor certification training and various training courses, workshops, seminars and conferences (including online) focused on food and food processing. A similar name used for anything in that educational‑training niche would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside those services are farther from the scope shown. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “GMA‑SAFE.” No Supplemental Register filing appears, so there is no descriptiveness‑to‑Supplemental sequence to note. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 2015, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations by others, or court actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a comparable name in food‑related training services.
