• The Fair trade Mark is an independent consumer
  label which appears on products as an independent
  guarantee that poor producers in the 3rd world
  are getting a better deal.

• Fair trade can come from a range of countries. In
  fact it is too hard to name all of them, so they
  come under a certain category ( the poor
  countries.) Most fair trade products come from
  poor countries. Where ordinary farmers and
  village people work hard to produce these
  products. Often they are paid little money for
  their hard work. Fair trade ensures everybody in
  the chain of production and sales get a fair deal
  for their work.
