CSR UK Social Responsibility: Fairtrade at CSR

CSR moved to Fairtrade coffee beans across all UK sites in 2010 and plans to do the same for tea bags and tinned coffee. Fairtrade is about better prices, decent working conditions, local sustainability and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers in the developing world. Fairtrade addresses injustices of conventional trade which traditionally discriminates against the poorest, weakest producers, so companies are asked to pay sustainable prices which never fall lower than the market price.
