Fairtrade @ Work!

Corporate Social Responsibility(CSR) profile, but also help in
developing a more equal and sustainable Africa through Fairtrade.
As a global ethical movement, Fairtrade has contributed to bringing better living and working conditions to over 1.5 million farmers and farm workers in Africa and in other developing regions, as well as improving sustainable production practices in agriculture.
Globally, Fairtrade is supported by a network of schools, universities, businesses, and towns that promote Fairtrade and use Fairtrade products in their networks. This has had a significant impact on Fairtrade becoming the most recognised and trusted ethical certification in the world.
