Trademark applications and registrations in Class 29 over the past 15 years.
Class 29 covers meat, fish, poultry, game, and a wide range of processed foods including preserved, frozen, dried, and cooked fruits and vegetables, dairy products, eggs, and edible oils and fats. With over 72,000 live marks, it is one of two major food classes (alongside Class 30) and represents the protein-centric and processed food segments of the food industry.
Class 29 includes mainly foodstuffs of animal origin, as well as vegetables and other horticultural comestible products which are prepared or preserved for consumption.

Search TrademarksClass 29 covers animal-derived products and processed plant foods (meat, fish, dairy, preserved/frozen fruits and vegetables, oils). Class 30 covers plant-based staples and prepared foods (coffee, tea, bread, pasta, chocolate, sauces, spices). Cheese is Class 29; pizza (as a prepared food) is Class 30.
It depends on the primary ingredient. Protein bars primarily made from nuts, dairy, or meat products lean toward Class 29. Granola bars, cereal bars, and confectionery bars are in Class 30. Many snack brands file in both.
Yes. Both fresh and processed meat, fish, poultry, and game belong in Class 29. Fresh, unprocessed fruits and vegetables belong in Class 31.
Plant-based meat substitutes (veggie burgers, tofu, tempeh, plant-based chicken) are classified in Class 29 as processed vegetable products. Even though they contain no animal products, their classification follows the food category they substitute. Brands like Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods file in Class 29.
Yes. Frozen, preserved, or processed fruit and vegetable products — including frozen smoothie packs, acai puree, and dried fruit mixes — belong in Class 29. Ready-to-drink smoothie beverages, however, fall under Class 32 (non-alcoholic beverages).
Yes. Bone broth, meat stock, bouillon, and meat extracts are all classified in Class 29. These are animal-derived processed food products. Vegetable broth also falls in Class 29 as a processed vegetable product.
Peanut butter, almond butter, and other nut or seed butters are classified in Class 29 as processed food products. This also includes tahini and similar spreads. Fruit jams and preserves are also in Class 29. Chocolate spreads, however, belong in Class 30.
Yes. Dairy alternatives — including oat milk, almond milk, coconut yogurt, and vegan cheese — are classified in Class 29 alongside their dairy counterparts. The classification follows the product type (milk products, cheese, butter) regardless of whether the source is animal or plant.
The most common mistake is filing only in Class 29 or Class 30 when your product line spans both. A snack company selling both beef jerky (Class 29) and pretzels (Class 30) needs both classes. Multi-ingredient products like trail mix may require filing in both classes depending on the dominant ingredients.
