Fairtrade

Fairtrade: We were one of the first in UK to apply for a licence to use the Fairtrade Mark.  Set up on a charitable basis, to help exploited coffee farmers, the scheme guarantees a minimum, reasonable price is paid to the producers.     www.fairtrade.org.uk 

 

  • Fair Trade aims to pay a fair price to coffee growers,  and the Fairtrade Mark assures consumers that the coffee we drink was purchased under fair conditions. To become Fair Trade certified, an importer must meet stringent international criteria; paying a minimum price per pound, providing much needed credit to farmers, and providing technical assistance such as help transitioning to organic farming. Fair Trade for coffee farmers means community development, health, education, and environmental stewardship.

  • In addition to our own roast coffee we supply a range of branded Fairtrade products including tea, hot chocolate, sugar and soft drinks.
