Today I bought myself a fair trade apple juice in the City University. It tasted really well, much better than any juice I have tried in London before. The pack says it was produced in South African Republic by the fair trade farmers. But the thing I am worrying about is the extent to which Fair trade contributes to the economy and the people's life. More money for producers means better quality products, but it also means that the producers will be able to improve their lives and economy will get a new customers, which will add-on another spin of improvements. Should not fair trade rules be adopted wider, say for the products made in China by sweatshop labourers? http://foodshortage.wordpress.com Hi!
