SEARCH OF USPTO DATABASE OF MARKS
In this case, applicant seeks to register the mark “KNOW FOODS” (standard characters) for use in connection with “Order fulfillment services.”
Applicant’s services are broad enough to include order fulfillment services in the field of food. Therefore, the word “FOODS” in the applied-for mark is merely descriptive of a feature of applicant’s goods and must be disclaimed.
Applicant may respond to this issue by submitting a disclaimer in the following format:
No claim is made to the exclusive right to use “FOODS” apart from the mark as shown.
For an overview of disclaimers and instructions on how to provide one using the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS), see the Disclaimer webpage.
Please call or email the assigned trademark examining attorney to resolve the issues in this Office action.
