Fair Trade K-Cups

Fair Trade Coffee

Most of us already know that coffee is a big business – $5 billion per year, in fact, of which about 40% falls under the banner of specialty coffee. Coffee is actually the second largest natural resource sold in the world behind oil! Fair Trade coffee is the fastest-growing segment of the specialty coffee market and guarantees a fair price for farmers. Fair trade coffee certification empowers farmers and farm workers to lift themselves out of poverty by investing in their farms and communities, protecting the environment, and developing the business skills necessary to compete in the global marketplace. Fair Trade coffee offers much more than a fair price! Fair Trade coffee espouses such principles as fair labor conditions, direct trade, democratic and transparent organizations, community development and environmental sustainability. In essence, Fair Trade coffee is good for the world economy, the local farmers and coffee loving consumers.
