Action Follows Repeated Unanswered Outreach Efforts to Protect Federal Trademark Rights and Prevent Consumer Confusion

LAKE JACKSON, TX / ACCESS Newswire / August 7, 2026 / Buc-ee's, Ltd. today issued the following statement regarding its federal trademark enforcement action concerning 'Beaver's Mini Mart':

"Buc-ee's first learned of 'Beaver's Mini Mart' on October 23, 2025, when owner Vikramjit Singh Boparai filed the Ohio Trade Name Registration (Doc. No. 202529601158) for "BEAVERS MINI MART." This conflicts with a federally registered trademark held by Buc-ee's. Buc-ee's attempted to contact Mr. Boparai by Fedex on March 5, 2026, and again on April 21, 2026 and received no response. Buc-ee's made a final attempt to contact Mr. Boparai by having correspondence delivered in person to his store on June 11, 2026 at 1:05 p.m. and still received no response. At this point, Buc-ee's filed the original complaint in federal court. The mayor of Huber Heights, Jeff Gore advised that Mr. Boparai owns more than 20 convenience stores in Ohio."
