.grocery is a proposed TLD in ICANN's New gTLD Program.
Current Applicant[edit | edit source]
Previous Applicant[edit | edit source]
Safeway withdrew its application for .grocery in September 2014 along with the other three New TLDs the company had applied for; .vons, .justforu and .safeway.[2]
GAC Early Warnings[edit | edit source]
Both applications were issued a GAC Early Warning from the representative of Australia and GAC Chair, Heather Dryden. The warning system is noted as a strong recommendation on behalf of national governments to the ICANN Board that a given TLD application should be denied as it stands. Applicants are encouraged to work with objecting GAC members.[3]
The warning states that the applicant is "seeking exclusive access to a common generic string .. that relates to a broad market sector," which Ms. Dryden notes could have unintended consequences and a negative impact on competition.[4]
