LA ESMERALDA COSTA RICA

What this record means

The record shows that “LA ESMERALDA COSTA RICA” is a cancelled Principal Register trademark owned by La Esmeralda de Costa Rica ECR S.A., a Costa‑Rica limited‑liability company; the registration was cancelled on September 6 2019 because the owner failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration. The only goods listed are dried tropical fruit—specifically pineapple, banana, plantain, papaya and mango—under International Class 029, so a similar name used for those food items would create the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over the words “La Esmeralda” or “Costa Rica” in other product categories or services. No prosecution history or enforcement actions appear in the file, and the latest meaningful event is the 2019 cancellation. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market dried tropical fruit under a comparable name, but the risk is far lower for unrelated goods.
