Fair trade and stainable business practice
Stainable business practice:
A business practice that is economically viable, socially
responsible and environmentally friendly is usually regarded
as being stainable.
How is fair trade environmentally sustainable?
We at fair trade USA believe that in order to improve producer’s
living and working conditions, their environment must also be
clean and healthy.
Requirements of fair trade:
It promotes sustainable development by offering
better trading conditions to, and securing the
rights of, marginalized producers and workers in
developing countries.
Fair trade is grounded in three core beliefs, first,
producers have the power to express unity with
consumers.
Fair trade criticism
Ethical basis:
Studies have shown a significant number of consumers were
content to pay higher prices for fair trade products, in the
belief that this helps the poor.
Unethical selling techniques:
Philip Booth says that the selling techniques used by some
sellers and some supporters of fair trade are bullying,
misleading, and unethical.
Political objections:
There have been largely political criticisms of fair trade from
the left and the right. Some believe the fair trade system is not
radical enough.
