Year: 2008
Type: article
Abstract: From text: Indications of the geographical origin of goods are becoming increasingly important in the trade environment. This is especially the case where the association between goods and country of origin carries a connotation of some or other uniqueness such as quality or other characteristics. Protection under such indication of geographical origin is found in the benefit that producers of associated goods can prevent producers of similar goods from outside the region from identifying their goods with the region via such indication.
