Description:
Geographical indications (GIs) play an important in the agriculture sector; however, the link between geographical indications and quality promotion has not been adequately analysed. This paper aims to investigate the influences of geographical indications on the quality of agricultural products in Vietnam, considering the role of public policies in this matter. We review the literature in GI protection in Vietnam, focusing on the role of the Government in structuring and implementing GIs and putting forward the institutional involvement. Three case studies on Phu Quoc fish sauce, Luc Ngan lychee and Moc Chau Shan Tuyet tea have been analysed on institutional influences of GIs on local products quality development and their supply chain management. The paper concludes with recommendations to promote GI implementation in enhancing agricultural product quality in Vietnam
