About Fairtrade

Fair  Trade (or "Fairtrade")  is,  fundamentally,  a  response  to  the  failure  of conventional trade to deliver sustainable livelihoods and development opportunities to people i

n the poorest countries of  the world; this is evidenced by the two billion of our fellow citizens who, despite

working extremely hard, survive on less than $2 per day. 

Fair Trade is a trading partnership, based on dialogue, transparency and respect, that seeks greater equity in international trade. It contributes to sustainable development by offering better trading conditions to, and securing the rights of, marginalized producers and workers – especially in the South.”
