BANZA

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “BANZA” is live and registered on the Principal Register under serial 90980409, owned by Banza LLC, a Michigan limited liability company. The registration covers class 030, specifically waffles, with first use in commerce on August 15 2023. Because the mark is registered for a specific food product, a similar name used for other foods or unrelated goods would raise a closer concern only if the goods are also waffles or closely related. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “BANZA.” No enforcement activity—such as oppositions or cancellations—is visible in the supplied history. The most recent event is the registration date of November 7 2023, and no further maintenance dates are provided. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that using “BANZA” for waffles or similar staple foods could trigger a claim of infringement, while other unrelated uses would be less likely to be challenged.
