The GI Tag recognition marks an important step towards protecting Goa’s indigenous produce while strengthening the identity of Goan cashews in national and global markets. This certification safeguards the distinct characteristics of GFDC Sylvan Cashew Nuts and ensures that their origin and quality are officially recognised.
The initiative has been supported by the Department of Science & Technology, Government of Goa, and is aimed at building a strong and credible brand for GFDC. Through value addition and enhanced market recognition, the GI Tag is expected to ensure fair and sustainable returns for orchard owners and cashew farmers, thereby empowering local farming communities.
This milestone reinforces Goa’s commitment to preserving its agricultural heritage while promoting responsible branding and market access for traditional produce.
From local orchards to global recognition, the GI Tag approval strengthens Goa’s cashew legacy and positions GFDC Sylvan Cashew Nuts as a symbol of quality, authenticity, and tradition.
