FAIRTRADE
Fairtrade means that farmers in developing countries are guaranteed to receive a fair price for their crops plus an extra social premium to invest in community support programmes and business development.
They also benefit from long-term trading relationships, credit facilities and decent working conditions. In return, the farmers reserve the pick of their crop for Fairtrade buyers, so consumers are guaranteed to get the best product.
3663 offer a range of different Fairtrade tea and coffee products from Cafedirect. We also offer confectionary from the Divine range from Divine Chocolate Limited, which is not only Fairtrade but also certified GM free.
