The FAIRTRADE Mark is the only independent consumer guarantee of a better deal for producers in the developing world. 5 million people - producers, workers and their families - currently benefit directly as a result of Fairtrade.

The FAIRTRADE Mark means: Farmers receive a fair and stable price for their products Producer groups receive a premium to invest in improving their communities and businesses Greater respect for the environment Small farmers have a stronger position in world markets A closer link between shoppers and producers

Fairtrade means… A fair and stable price for producers “…we can buy pens and notebooks so children can go to school. We have bought seeds and fertiliser to grow vegetables and improve our family’s diet.” Sira Souko Cotton farmer, Batimakana, Mali

Fairtrade means… Extra income to invest in bringing about change for the future Farmers at Mbale Growers’ tea factory in Uganda used some of their Fairtrade premium to build a road for the local community enabling easier access to local markets.

Fairtrade means… Producers are working to protect their environment Coffee farmers in one co- operative in Costa Rica are protecting the rainforest with new coffee driers that run on recycled coffee bean husks and organic material, rather than using firewood.

Fairtrade means… Small farmers have a stronger position in world markets “For us small producers, we are very committed to Fairtrade. It is our means of survival here in the Dominican Republic. We see Fairtrade as being part of a big family.” José Peralta Banana Grower ASOBANU, Dominican Republic

more products… More people buying… in more places… …more often!
