Coffee is where fair trade started

Coffee is one of the first products fair trade standards were built around, because so much of it is grown by small farmers with little say over price. Every brand here is vetted against fair trade standards before it's listed, including fair wages, safe working conditions, and no forced or child labour. If you don't need it, don't buy it. If you do, buy it fair.

Questions about gifts for coffee lovers

Is all the coffee here Fairtrade certified?

Not every coffee carries a certification label, but every coffee brand is vetted against fair trade standards before it's listed. Each brand page says which certifications it holds.

Whole bean or ground?

Check the options on each product. Whole bean stays fresh longer; ground is easier if they don't own a grinder.

Are these gifts fair trade?

Yes. Every brand on The Labour Movement is vetted against fair trade standards before it's listed: fair wages, safe working conditions, the right to organize, and no forced or child labour. Brands are reviewed again every year.
