4 Sustainable Fair Trade Brands We Know You’ll Love

This Saturday (8th May 2021) is World Fair Trade Day, a day dedicated to promoting and raising awareness of the global Fair Trade movement. But what exactly is Fair Trade and why does it matter? Fair Trade organisations were set up in order to support small-scale local farmers who are often exploited under conventional trading practices. These organisations promote fair wages, transparent supply chains, and the protection of the environment by prohibiting farmers from using harmful agrochemicals and advising them on how to utilise more environmentally friendly farming methods. By choosing to purchase from brands that utilise Fair Trade ingredients and materials, you not only support the livelihoods of small-scale farmers but you can also feel good knowing you are getting high-quality, healthy, sustainable products that taste, look and feel amazing. We’re proud to stock some incredible brands right here on Veo that support Fair Trade practices. Check them out below:
