Fairtrade Fortnight is back and we have so many exciting things to share this year!
We’re proud to be a long-standing supporter of Fairtrade, and this year, we’re celebrating a major milestone – 30 years of co-ops supporting Fairtrade!🎉 We proudly stand alongside the Fairtrade Foundation in urging everyone to "Be the Change" by choosing Fairtrade products and advocating for fairer trade.
Here’s a sneak peek at some of the exciting things coming up:
💚We’re thrilled to announce the arrival of the UK’s first 100% Fairtrade-certified macadamia nut products from Nutcellars.
💚Ahead of Fairtrade Fortnight, we had the honour of welcoming Howard Msukwa, a rice farmer from Northern Malawi who works with True Origin.
💚The Co-op Group is hosting a virtual wine tasting, and Central Co-op Members are invited to join!
💚Enjoy exclusive Member discounts on your Fairtrade favourites, from tea, coffee, and chocolate to cotton pads, plus our new Co-op Irresistible Fairtrade Caribbean Golden Rum.
💚Our Member and Community Councils have many different workshops and events going on, keep a look out for what is happening in your area!
Fairtrade Fortnight is your opportunity to make a global difference by choosing Fairtrade products and supporting fairer trade. Whether you attend an event, try Fairtrade macadamia nuts, or join our virtual wine tasting, every action matters.
Let’s celebrate the power of fair trade, support farmers and be the change this Fairtrade Fortnight!
