Trabzon geographical indication registrations

Overview

Trabzon ice cream has officially received geographical indication registration from the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office. The product, which utilizes an eight-hour cooking process with fatty cow's milk, salep, and minimal sugar, was registered following an application by the Trabzon Chamber of Commerce and Industry (TTSO).

This registration brings the total number of geographically indicated products in Trabzon to 16. These certified items include various food products such as Akçaabat Köftesi, Hamsiköy Sütlacı, Sürmene Pidesi, and Vakfıkebir Ekmeği, as well as traditional handicrafts like the Sürmene Knife and Trabzon Kazaziyesi. The designations are intended to protect local production characteristics, preserve artisanal heritage, and enhance the city's brand value in the gastronomy and tourism sectors.
