Feta, ouzo impacted by EU–Australia trade deal on product names
The EU-Australia trade deal impacts European products like feta and ouzo, with some names being phased out in Australia over 5-10 years. The agreement protects hundreds of European geographical indications, while allowing some widely used names to continue in the Australian market.
Greece's iconic feta and ouzo are affected by the EU-Australia trade deal. The deal protects hundreds of European geographical indications, but also allows some names to continue in Australia. Nine product names, including Prosecco and Ouzo, will be phased out over 5-10 years. Feta is grandfathered, meaning Australian producers who have used the term can continue to do so. The deal highlights the tension between protecting traditional products and maintaining open trade. The agreement will lead to gradual changes in product labeling across Australia.
