Fairtrade

What is Fairtrade?


1.

FairTrade is an economic agreement between More Economically Developed Countries (MEDCs) and Third World Countries, which ensures Third World producers get a better/fairer trade (hence the name)for their products.

Before FairTrade came into play, cocoa beans from Ecuador used to be 1p for a tonne, but now they are £100 per gram!

(exageration) :P

See fair, trade, more, money

2.

When a manufacturer slightly increases what they paid a producer to allow them to greatly increase the price they charge you.

This is fairtrade chocolate, you're paying alot more for it but you can feel good about it.
