Research data was obtained by conducting observations, interviews, and documentation and then processed qualitatively. In Tana Luwu, there are no special foods that receive geographic indication protection, due to several factors, including the absence of data related to typical foods in the Tana Luwu area, and the lack of socialization related to the importance of legal protection of geographical indications for typical foods. Cooperation is needed between the Government, typical food entrepreneurs, and academics in providing legal protection for geographical indications for typical foods in the Tana Luwu area.
