Geographical Indications (GIs) are traditional intellectual protection tools for agricultural products that are embedded in specific territories. Rich in tradition and specific to the region, GIs reflect the diversity of agricultural activities, but they may increase the specialization of the area, especially when the reputation of the GI is high. In a context of agroecological transition, it is therefore appropriate to analyze the effects of GIs on the diversification of agriculture, and on the sustainable development of regions. Thus, this article raises the following question: To which extent the concentration of production of some GIs, due to their success, hinder the effects of GIs on the sustainable development of territories?
