Geographical Indication (GI)
Geographical Indication (GI)
Geographical Indication means an indication, for example, a name, geographical or figurative representation or any combination thereof, used to represent specific goods originating, produced, processed or manufactured in a specific geographical area or territory of a country, or a region or a locality in that territory, where a given quality, reputation or other characteristics of such goods are essentially attributable due to its geographical origin.
A Geographical Indication (GI) is a label for products tied to a specific location. This link guarantees certain qualities or a reputation linked to that place. Think of Parmesan cheese from Italy or Darjeeling tea from India. GIs protect consumers from imitations and producers from having their reputation exploited.
