Columbia Coffee (Cafe de Colombia) is one of the few individual coffees sold under the name of a country in the world, and it is also a successful example of the successful combination of geographical indications and brand image. In December 2004, the Colombian Coffee producers Association (FNC) applied to the Government of Colombia for registration of the geographical indication "Caf é de Colombia" (Colombian Coffee). Three months later, the Colombian government approved "Caf é de Colombia" as "appellation of origin-geographical indication (D.O.-G.I.)". As a result, this logo has also become the official symbol of the Colombian Coffee producers Association.
