What is Fair Trade and Why Does It Matter?

Fair Trade is a global movement that ensures products are made under strict social, environmental, and economic standards. For coffee, this means that farmers receive fair compensation, work in safe environments, and use sustainable farming methods. Beyond certification, Fair Trade empowers communities and promotes economic independence, allowing small-scale farmers to thrive in the global market.
