IDFA INTERNATIONAL DAIRY FOODS ASSOCIATION
Live · Registered LIVE/REGISTRATION/Issued and Active
What this record means
The record shows a live, Principal Register registration (Reg. No. 6521768) owned by the International Dairy Foods Association, a corporation organized in the District of Columbia, and the mark “IDFA INTERNATIONAL DAIRY FOODS ASSOCIATION” is currently active. It covers association services that promote the dairy foods industry and provide educational consumer information about dairy products, a web‑based software tool for calculating economic benefits of dairy products and services, and educational information to consumers about the nutritional and health benefits of dairy in the restaurant, hotel, medical and beauty contexts (Classes 035, 042, 043 and 044). A similar name used for anything that falls within those same categories would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses unrelated to dairy‑industry promotion or education fall farther from the scope shown. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “IDFA” or “International Dairy Foods Association.” The latest substantive event is the registration on Oct 12 2021; recent attorney‑related filings in Nov 2024 confirm the mark remains live, and no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name that targets dairy‑related association or educational services.
