Fairtrade Sudbury, Suffolk, UK, building a fairer world together.
Fairness, equality and justice are worth striving for. Sudbury can be proud to uphold these qualities by being a Fairtrade town. By choosing to support Fairtrade, Sudbury adds its voice to demands for a trade system that puts people, not profit, at the heart of the transaction. We believe that our voices are louder when we speak together.
Fairtrade is a system of certification that aims to ensure a set of standards are met in the production and supply of a product or ingredient. For farmers and workers, Fairtrade means workers’ rights, safer working conditions and fairer pay. For shoppers it means high quality, ethically produced products. Choosing Fairtrade means standing with farmers for fairness and equality, against some of the biggest challenges the world faces. It means farmers creating change, from investing in climate friendly farming techniques to developing women in leadership.
With Fairtrade you change the world a little bit every day. Through simple shopping choices you are showing businesses and governments that you believe in fair and just trade.
If you are a Sudbury Business, serving or stocking Fairtrade products, please get in touch with info@sudburyfairtrade.org.uk and towncentremanager@sudburytowncouncil.co.uk so we can can you to our local Fairtrade business directory.
