El impacto de la Fair Trade Certification
Hoy en día, los productos Fair Trade Certified™ que provienen de más de 60 países (y ese número va en aumento) se venden en Estados Unidos y más allá. Estas compras promueven un impacto social, ambiental y económico que transforma a las comunidades que más lo necesitan, lo cual a su vez produce cadenas de suministro más resilientes.
Cómo generamos el cambio
Everyone deserves to prosper in a sustainable community. Our impact model protects human rights, enables sustainable livelihoods for farmers, fishers, and workers, and creates more resiliency – in both communities, as well as supply chains. More than $846 million in financial benefit has been delivered to producer communities between 1999-2020.

Fortalecer las comunidades
Community investment is a pillar of fair trade impact. Through the Community Development Fund, farmers, workers, and fishers democratically determine their biggest areas of need and what to invest in. Many of the benefits of fair trade are a result of this. Gender equity requirements create leadership opportunities that would otherwise not exist. Investments are consistently made in areas that both positively impact the community (like access to healthcare and education) as well as productivity (including quality and production improvements).
