What is Fairtrade?
What we do
We empower millions of farmers and workers around the world by tackling poverty and poor working conditions, as well as conserving the environment. It’s hope for a better future by making trade fair.
Choose the product that will change lives
Farmers, workers and their communities around the world face poverty, inequality, gruelling conditions and in some industries, risks to their lives – all in an effort to grow and make the things we pop in our shopping trolley.
To buy a Fairtrade product means you are a part of one of the largest movements for change. Fairtrade certification can help lift a farmer or worker out of poverty. It can give a child an education, and grow a community or a business. Fairtrade is a tool for a better life for farmers, workers and their families.
Our vision
A world in which all producers can enjoy secure and sustainable livelihoods, fulfill their potential and decide on their future.
Our mission
To connect disadvantaged producers and consumers, promote fairer trading conditions and empower producers to combat poverty, strengthen their position and take more control over their lives.
