What is a Fairtrade town?
A Fairtrade Town is a town, city, village, county, zone, island or borough that has made a commitment to supporting Fairtrade and using products with the FAIRTRADE Mark. Any area can work towards Fairtrade status and everyone needs to be involved!
By choosing to support Fairtrade, your community can add its voice to demands for a trade system that puts people, not profit, at the heart of the transaction. Our voices become louder when we speak together.
Community organisations, faith groups, businesses, schools and individuals all contribute to making their area a Fairtrade Town by pledging to do what they can to support Fairtrade and promote the FAIRTRADE Mark.
Working towards Fairtrade Town status will bring together neighbours, groups, the local authority and businesses
towards a common goal and a shared achievement. It will also be an achievement everyone can celebrate and a
powerful message about how your community wants trade to work.
