coffee a year.
The Fairtrade Mark is an independent consumer label which appears on products as a guarantee that farmers get a fair deal in the developing world.
Fair trade coffee is bought directly from farmer's organisations at a price which always covers the cost of production and a basic living wage, no matter how low the world price goes.
