Kampong Speu province palm sugar

Kampong Speu province palm sugar, awarded a geographic indication by the government in April, is set for increased overseas export despite limited capacity and poor production methods, traders said on December 5, 2010. Chhon Ravuth, general manager of the beverage-maker Conferral, a buyer and exporter of palm-produced products in Cambodia, said his company was looking for new markets to sell GI Kampong Speu sugar, even though it was little known to the outside world.
A geographic indication certifies that a product comes from a particular location and may possess certain qualities or enjoy an enhanced reputation.
