Based in Ontario and representing FYROM interests, Triple A Cheese Co LTD is launching a new product called “Macedonian Cheese Feta” in the Canadian and US markets, despite the fact that the term ‘feta’ cheese has been recognized as a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) that can be only produced in certain areas of Greece respecting strict product specifications.
The European Commission adopted measures to protect the Greek “Feta” in June 1996, which were reconfirmed in 2002 and 2005. According to the PDO decision, the European Commission gives other nations five years to find a new name for their “feta” cheese, or to stop production.
Several Canadian media have been playing the advertisement spot of the Triple A Cheese product.
