In 2004, we pioneered the sale of the first fair trade & organic avocados from Mexico. Since then, we have
partnered with producers in Mexico, Argentina, Peru, and Southeast Asia to scale up our fair trade and organic
portfolio to include: wine, tropical fresh fruit, dried fruit, grains, herbs & spices, oilseeds, nuts, fruit juices,
pulps, chutneys, hot beverages, and confectionary ingredients.
Fairtrasa links marginalized producers with conscientious import markets. We foster micro-entrepreneur
development by connecting farmers with improved infrastructure, financing, agricultural support, and market
knowledge. We have created a sustainable empowerment model for marginalized growers that use organic
and fair trade systems to overcome poverty, protect the environment and promote social development.
Fair trade premiums generated from sales have built schools, supply remote villages with water, repair
unsurpassable roads, preserve cultural traditions, and fund medical needs. Purchasing a Fairtrasa product is a
direct contribution to environmental stewardship, uplifting struggling communities and empowering small
farmers. Join us in our effort to achieve a market-driven paradigm shift. Exercise your power as a consumer to
create a more sustainable and equitable food system.
