FAIR TRADE
Our greatest teacher on sustainability has been fair trade (WFTO) principles and network of its diverse representatives from all over the world.
Fair trade believes that trade can be a fundamental driver of poverty reduction and greater sustainable development. People can overcome disadvantage and marginalisation if they are empowered to take more
control over their work and their lives and can gain access to mainstream markets under fair trading conditions.
Fair trade is a trading partnership, based on dialogue, transparency and respect, that seeks greater equality in international trade. The goal is that all our products are made according to Fairtrade standards. Meaning fair pricing, decent working conditions, local sustainability, and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers in the developing world enabling makers to improve their position and have more control over their lives.
We are engaged in supporting producers, awareness raising and exhibiting collections - dedicated to making products and business in a sustainable way. We want to be leading the way towards Fair Trade business models together with companies, organisations and influencers.

It is important to remember that no certification system can guarantee sustainability.
Most human rights and environmental challenges in supply chains are rooted in poverty, inequality, and systemic issues that no single scheme or organisation can change alone.
Let’s celebrate achievements but be mindful that much more remains to be done.
• Fairtrade is about fairer purchasingpractices and more decent workingconditions. It’s about working towardsthe living income that farmers deservefor their hard work.
• Fairtrade Minimum Prices aim tocover the average cost of sustainableproduction and act as a safety net forproducers when market prices drop.
• Fairtrade tackles the root causes ofbiodiversity loss in many ways – fromtraining farmers to setting standards forsustainable supply chains, and lobbyinggovernments and corporations.
