fairvalley is fairtrade certified

Fairtrade is an alternative approach to conventional trade and a global movement that represents sustainability and development through trade.

Dating back to the 1960s, Fairtrade started with small initiatives by individuals or groups, usually faith-based organisations or social entrepreneurs, who wanted to make a difference in developing countries by buying their products in an ethical manner. This included paying fairer prices and establishing direct trading partnerships with producers, thereby sharing knowledge and information on production, market and quality requirements.
