A gram-force is a gravitational metric unit of force. It is equal to the force exerted by one gram of mass in a standard gravitational field.
gf
Therefore, 1 gram-force = 9.80665 mN.
A gram-force is a convenient unit because its value is equal to the weight of an object with a mass of 1 g and it is easy to imagine what is, e.g., a 100 gf force.
