What about the ethical standards of the manufacturing companies you use?
Traidcraft uses a range of manufacturing companies to produce our various food products. All these companies have to be registered with the Fairtrade Foundation or their national equivalent in order to manufacture goods with the Fairtrade Mark.
Before agreeing to work with a company, we carefully assess their practices from an ethical viewpoint, and continue to monitor them thereafter.
In 2006 we appointed a UK Ethical Sourcing Manager specifically to strengthen this aspect of our supply chains.
