Fairtrade

'The Fairtrade Foundation is the independent non-profit organisation that licenses use of the FAIRTRADE Mark on products in the UK in accordance with internationally agreed Fairtrade standards.'
The organisation was set up in 1992 in order to create justice and sustainable development at the heart of trade structures and practices.Its main aim is to help the poor and disadvantaged in third world countries when it comes to both food and textiles along with other areas of industry. 'Fairtrade contributes to sustainable development for marginalised producers, workers and their communities'.
