Corporate Partnerships

Alongside our well-known certification scheme, our corporate partnerships are vital in powering Fairtrade’s innovative programmes, advocacy and public education work. 

The Fairtrade Foundation is an industry-leading charity working with 2 million producers worldwide. Together with our partners, we are committed to challenging injustice, taking action to support farmers and workers, and protecting the environment.  

Across your favourite coffee, tea or chocolate, you’ll recognise the Fairtrade Mark as the world’s most trusted ethical label, but we know we can go even further to address the biggest challenges faced by farmers and workers.

We work in partnership with producers, businesses and their customers around the world to champion trade justice, support sustainable livelihoods and respond to the impacts of climate change. 

Work with us to build a unique charity partnership that demonstrates your social and environmental leadership.

Together, we will create a fairer, more sustainable world.
