Akamuti

455

Our name Akamuti is an African word taken from the Bemba language of Zambia. It has two meanings. It translates as 'Little Tree' or 'A Little Bit Of Medicine' It goes to show that in many parts of Africa, trees & medicine are one & are revered as powerful sources of healing. Tree ingredients are very important in our products & we feel that trees are not only essential for our health but also for the health of the whole planet. There is something here to keep everybody's skin happy! As we believe passionately in sustainable & ethical trading, we source as many fair trade ingredients as possible from vulnerable communities around the world. Our organic forest beeswax & honey is fairly traded with Miombo beekeepers in Zambia, helping to preserve tribal communities & the forests that they live in. Our wildcrafted shea butter is fairly traded with womens' co-operatives in Togo, helping to fund renewable energy projects & provide better amenities.

BoBelle

35

BoBelle was founded by Claire Watt-Smith in October 2007 with the vision to supply fashionable, affordable, functional, unique and high quality fashion accessories, baby clothes and gifts, all of which are produced under fair trade conditions. BoBelle have only a handful of meticulously sourced suppliers, all of whom carefully create their items to the highest standard. To the best of BoBelle’s knowledge, each one of their suppliers adopts this similar fair-trade attitude which comprises working under comfortable and safe working conditions, being paid at least the minimum wage and never negotiating on price. BoBelle supports both local and international artisans and consequently have developed strong and lasting relationships with each designer. As a result, each artisan is incredibly proud of their work and enjoys working under such reliable and safe working conditions.

Ethicalonestopshop.com

105

ethicalonestopshop.com was launched in August 2005 by Emma Smith, as a result of ethical concerns regarding trade and consumerism and an increasing awareness of humanity’s impact on the planet and its inhabitants. The aim was to make it as easy as possible for people to shop ethically. The first site was a retail site from which Emma sold ethically sourced products directly to customers. Two years later, and now in partnership with fellow director Collette Bentley, we have taken a giant leap forward in order to be what it says on the tin …. an Ethical One Stop Shop!

    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.
