Fair Trade Coffee
A week ago I bought a trade fair coffee and I bought it more expensive that to an ordinary organic coffee.
So I was so excited to try the coffee and after I drink it, the taste was like an ordinary coffee.
So I ran to my computer and researched about
this trade fair coffee. After my research I found out that the fair trade coffee is really the same with the organic coffee.
Fair trade is one kind of business of selling coffee or any other product and it is the one that builds equitable, long term contract of partnership between buyers and the sellers.
Trade fair coffee is a handmade crafts and it became more expensive because of the high percentage asked by middle people from the agreement.
I told you that the trade fair coffee is a handmade crafts, not like the factory made; they are not making coffee in mass productions this is individually harvested and made coffee by themselves.
Their goals is to achieve and to promote healthier working conditions and to get more incentive for the sellers.
