Fairtrade
Foundation has launched a new campaign and Fairtrade
at Work website to let workplaces know, however large or small
and wherever they are based in the UK, that Fairtrade products are
widely and readily available in the out-of-home sector and can be
sourced for workplaces!
With this campaign we want to encourage more workplaces
to buy Fairtrade products to offer to their staff and visitors,
especially as the out-of-home market is ripe with opportunity!
Why Buy Fairtrade?
As well as guaranteeing a fair price for the farmers,
the FAIRTRADE Mark also means an additional Fairtrade premium is
invested in community development projects chosen by the farmers
and workers. The farmers and workers decide how to invest this additional
money in their local community – on education, clean water
supplies, health care or other vital facilities.
Fairtrade means that disadvantaged farmers in the developing world
can live with more security than they have ever known, giving them
access to far-flung markets in richer countries often for the first
time. Workers will earn a decent wage; children can go to school
knowing they have a real chance of a longer and better education.
Fairtrade Vending has developed a range of fairtrade hot drink
and fairtrade snack machines designed to only offer 100% fairtrade
products.
We invite you to visit our luxury showroom where you can view our
range of Fairtrade vending machines and sample our range of Fairtrade
coffees, teas and chocolate drinks.
Fairtrade Vending are dedicated to supporting fairtrade and all
the organisations that with them are helping to provide a long-term
solution to the problem of unfair competition of big business and
developing a better future for themselves and their communities.
