What this record means
The record shows that the mark “VIKI'S GRANOLA BARK” is dead, having been abandoned because the owner, Viki's Foods, LLC, did not file a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The mark was filed on July 2, 2016 and published for opposition on December 20, 2016, with a Notice of Allowance on August 8, 2017. It was registered on the Principal Register for class 030, covering the good “Granola.” Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over the words “granola bark” in general, but it does indicate that a similar name could raise the closest concern for use in the granola market. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. The latest status event is the abandonment on September 10, 2018. For someone looking at a similar name, the record suggests a moderate risk of confusion if the new name is used for granola products.
