This has hugely improved the working conditions for our producer partners, giving them light spacious airy units in which to work, and importantly for them, bringing them all together in one location, The building is on the edge of the village and is surrounded by coconut groves and rice paddy fields. In January 2006 a grand inaugural ceremony was held and Carolyn Whitwell who started the Bishopston Trading Company in 1985 officially opened the buildings.

    How deep is Consumer Demand for Fair Trade?

    The most recent data show that the sale of Fair Trade Certified products continued growing strongly last year- an expansion that as been slowed but by no means halted by the current economic recession. This both heartens Fair Trade advocates and suggests future growth in the amounts and range of products that consumers are willing to pay more for in the name of social justice. While the limits to that expansion are hard to predict, several indices-sales data, an international survey of consumer opinions, and the recent large-scale involvement of major corporate retailers- suggest the phenomenon has considerably further to go before exhausting its potential for growth. Globally, the sale of Fair Trade products grew 22% in 2008 to $4.3 billion.
