    Fair trade ensures that farmers in developing countries have acceptable working conditions and receive more revenue.
    What's your opinion on Fair trade movement? Do you buy products with a Fair trade label? Would you mind paying more for such products?

    I do believe in Fairtrade products, but I think that's how it should be already! I would pay a little more and feel better about where the money goes, however you do have to look at quality as well.

    I know supermarkets are happy to slap a Fairtrade label on or advertise as such, but do you trust and believe them?
