Protection of GIs and designations of origin for agri-food

This procedure concerns the protection of geographical indications and designations of origin for agricultural products and foodstuffs. It aims to ensure that products with specific geographical origins and qualities are properly recognised and protected against misuse, thereby supporting producers and consumers.

This affects producers of specialised food and agricultural goods, as well as consumers seeking authentic products. It aims to enhance market access and fair competition for these unique regional products.
