OVERVIEW

A geographical indication (GI) is a sign used on products that have a specific geographical origin and possess qualities or a reputation that are due to that origin. In order to function as a GI, a sign must identify a product as originating in a given place. – Source: WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organisation)
