Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…The journalists behind the revival of Gourmet are dropping the storied magazine’s name months after Condé Nast sued over the publication’s use of the trademark.
The announcement follows a trademark dispute that began earlier this year, when Condé Nast sued Goulash Unlimited, the LLC behind the revived publication, alleging it infringed on the Gourmet name despite the print magazine’s closure in 2009.
Condé Nast argued in its complaint that it continued to use the Gourmet brand through Epicurious and Gourmet-branded content on YouTube, and that the new venture threatened the value and goodwill associated with the trademark.
“Goulash Unlimited LLC has agreed to rebrand and cease use of the Gourmet trademark as part of a confidential settlement agreement with Condé Nast,” the editors told TheWrap in a Monday statement.
TheWrap has reached out to Condé Nast for further comment.
