PGI Products
PGI Products, or Protected Geographical Indication Products, are items that have a specific geographical origin and possess qualities or a reputation linked to that location. This designation helps to protect the unique characteristics of these products, ensuring that only those produced in the designated area can use the name. Examples include Parma Ham from Italy and Champagne from France.
The PGI system is part of the European Union's efforts to promote and protect regional foods and traditional production methods. By using PGI labels, consumers can identify authentic products and support local economies, while producers benefit from the recognition and protection of their heritage.
