What this record means
The record shows that the mark “MASTERCHEF” was filed by Shine TV Limited, a corporation organized in the United Kingdom, on August 30 2013 under an intent‑to‑use basis. The application was ultimately abandoned on January 17 2017 because the applicant failed to respond to a final refusal. The mark was never registered and therefore does not appear on either the Principal or Supplemental Register. The goods listed in the application are a wide range of kitchen and tableware items, including knives, forks, spoons, chef knives, cake cutters, pizza cutters, and various hand‑operated kitchen appliances. A similar name used for products or services that fall within this broad kitchen‑tool category would raise the closest record‑based concern. The history shows no oppositions, cancellations, or court actions, so the supplied record contains no visible enforcement activity. For anyone considering a similar name, the abandoned status means the mark is not currently protected, but the detailed goods list suggests that using the name for comparable kitchen tools could still pose a risk.
