What's fair trading all about? Essentially, it's about giving a fair deal to the people who produce our food in some of the world's poorest countries. Fair-trading schemes usually aim to pay a premium over the market rate for goods. This ensures that workers get a fair wage and are treated well, and that communities in poor countries can use profits to invest in their future. Is there a difference between fair trading and Fairtrade? 'Fair trading' is a general term used when businesses work with suppliers who treat their workers well and pay decent wages. The Fairtrade mark is used by the Fairtrade Foundation, an independent UK charity set up by a group of charities including Oxfam, the Catholic Agency for Overseas Development (CAFOD) and Christian Aid. The mark indicates that a product has met specific criteria in the way it was produced and traded. The internationally accepted fair-trading standards are set by Fairtrade Labelling Organisations International (FLO), which regularly inspects and certifies more than 580 producer organisations in over 50 countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America.

    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.
