Who are the Fairtrade Foundation?

The Fairtrade Foundation licenses the Fairtrade Mark to products that meet internationally recognised standards. Their primary communication aims are to raise awareness of the Fairtrade Mark, to deepen understanding of the Mark and to increase sales of Fairtrade certified products.

The Foundation was established in 1992 by Traidcraft, CAFOD, Christian Aid, New Consumer, Oxfam and the World Development Movement.

The Fairtrade Foundation is the UK member of Fairtrade Labelling Organisations International (FLO), which unites 21 national initiatives across Europe, Japan, North America, Mexico and Australia/New Zealand.
