Fair Trade Federation
The Fair Trade
Federation (FTF) is an association of Fair
Trade wholesalers, retailers, and producers
whose members are fully committed to providing
fair wages and good employment opportunities to
economically disadvantaged artisans and farmers
worldwide.
FTF members link low-income producers with consumer markets and educate consumers about the importance of purchasing fairly traded products which support living wages and safe and healthy conditions for workers in the developing world. FTF provides resources and networking opportunities for its members and acts as a clearinghouse for information on Fair Trade. FTF membership is not a certification, but members are screened for their full commitment to fair trade.
By adhering to social criteria and environmental principles, Fair Trade organizations foster a more equitable and sustainable system of production and trade that benefits people and their communities.
