It is noted that Ukraine has already formed a legislative framework for the protection of geographical indications in the fields of agricultural products, foodstuffs, wines and spirits. At the same time, the development of by-laws necessary for the full functioning of this system is being completed.
Geographical indications for Ukraine are not a formality, but a tool for development. They allow us to protect unique Ukrainian products, develop strong regional brands and open the way for them to the European market.
The Ministry of Economy emphasizes that the implementation of European standards in the field of geographical indications is an important part of Ukraine's integration into the common EU market and will contribute to the promotion of Ukrainian products in international markets.
