How To Become an Authorized Manufacturer:
The CLC (Collegiate Licensing Company) offers brand development, protection, and management of the use of UAF logos. Logos are intellectual property, so use of logos must be protected. For this reason, UAF has contracted CLC to manage products which include the use of, or reference to, UAF.
Obtaining a license through CLC for one of its member institutions is a process that will require a great deal of thought, research, and commitment. With more than 2,500 companies already licensed to produce a wide range of products, only those companies that can exhibit a commitment to the collegiate market, have established production and distribution capabilities, and/or offer a new or unique product will be granted the opportunity to obtain a license.
