VEGAIN trademark opposition, Sequel Naturals vs Vegain Nutrition
Summary
The USPTO Trademark Trial and Appeal Board recorded opposition proceeding TTAB91304653 filed by Sequel Naturals ULC against Vegain Nutrition Inc. regarding the VEGAIN trademark. The opposition has been suspended pending resolution of a related civil action. Both parties are involved in a trademark dispute over the VEGAIN mark in the nutrition/supplement sector.
What changed
The TTAB opposition proceeding TTAB91304653 was formally recorded and subsequently suspended. Sequel Naturals ULC filed the opposition on January 22, 2026, challenging Vegain Nutrition Inc.'s trademark application for VEGAIN. The proceeding is now suspended, likely due to a parallel federal court case involving the same parties or marks. The suspension halts TTAB proceedings until the related matter is resolved.
Trademark applicants and opposers should be aware that TTAB may suspend opposition proceedings when related litigation is pending. Companies involved in trademark disputes should coordinate TTAB proceedings with federal court actions to avoid inconsistent outcomes. The suspension delays resolution of the VEGAIN trademark dispute but does not prejudice either party's substantive claims.
What to do next
- Monitor the TTAB proceeding for further developments
- Prepare trademark defense documentation if representing Vegain Nutrition Inc.
- Review trademark portfolios for potential conflicts with VEGAIN mark
