Producers

At the heart of the Fairtrade system are the farmers and workers who are members of Fairtrade certified producer organisations.

Ranging in size from small co-operatives to large plantations and scattered over Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, they supply the UK market with Fairtrade certified products.
