We have designed our Product of Cornwall scheme to protect and promote Cornwall’s primary produce. This includes products such as:
- livestock
- meat
- fish
- fruit
- vegetables
- flowers
- plants and;

The scheme provides assurances to consumers and businesses that products displaying the logo are of Cornish origin. A qualified and experienced Trading Standards officer tests and checks all products in the scheme.
