DITP Awards Thai SELECT Certification to 213 Processed Food Products
The Department of International Trade Promotion has certified 213 processed Thai food products with the 'Thai SELECT' label to boost global recognition of authentic flavors.
According to a report by Matichon Online, the Department of International Trade Promotion (DITP) has officially awarded the 'Thai SELECT' certification to 213 processed food products. This initiative is designed to elevate the standards of Thai food exports and ensure that international consumers can easily identify authentic, high-quality Thai flavors in the global market.
For residents and travelers, this certification serves as a quality benchmark. When shopping for Thai ingredients or pre-packaged meals abroad, the Thai SELECT logo acts as a guarantee that the product adheres to traditional recipes and authentic taste profiles. This makes it easier for those living outside of Thailand to recreate genuine Thai dishes at home or identify reliable brands while traveling.
While the DITP has confirmed the selection of these 213 products, the specific list of brands and the full range of food categories included in this latest batch have not been fully detailed in the initial announcement. Consumers interested in specific products are encouraged to look for the official logo on packaging. The move is part of a broader government strategy to strengthen the 'Soft Power' of Thai cuisine and increase the competitiveness of Thai food manufacturers on the international stage.
