The FAIRTRADE Mark is an independent consumer label appearing on products to guarantee that disadvantaged producers in the developing world are getting a better and fair deal.
The FAIRTRADE Mark ensures that the products meet Fairtrade standards. The Fairtrade Labelling Organisations (FLO) sets the international standards which each producer in any country has to be annually accredited for.
Fairtrade guarantees that a premium from the sale of products in first world countries with the Fairtrade logo will go back to the producer. The premium is used to uplift small developing producers and their employees.
