Introducing Only Fair- Fair Trade Gifts From Around the World

OnlyFair · #1 (**permalink**) 21-03-2008, 14:51

Only Fair is a fresh and exciting gift shop. Launched in August 2007, we specialise in fairly traded and FAIRTRADE gifts from around the World.

The term Fair Trade is used to indicate ethical trading. This means that companies are involved in trying to ensure that the basic labour rights of employees of their third world suppliers are respected. Ethical trading is based around ensuring that no exploitation takes place, this includes ensuring there is no use of forced labour. Read more here.

FAIRTRADE is the term that is used to describe products that hold the FAIRTRADE mark, awarded by the Fairtrade Foundation. The FAIRTRADE mark is a guarantee that the producers have been given a better deal for their work. It addresses the injustice of low prices by guaranteeing that producers receive fair terms of trade and fair prices, no matter what is happening in the market.

At Only Fair we do not work directly with suppliers but we do insist that suppliers are BAFTS and IFAT registered. This means we can be sure that our goods are produced in accordance with the principles of Fair Trade and that processes have been independently verified.

Keen to promote fair trade, the range includes chocolate and coffee, reusable bags, wedding gifts and items for the home, with speedy delivery at a reasonable £2.95. Spend over £30 and receive a free 100g bar of delicious Divine chocolate.

You can contact Only Fair on 01366 38974 or by sales@onlyfair.co.uk

Only Fair also offer Fair Trade Parties within the West Norfolk area and are happy to participate in fairs and events.

Thanks very much, its a great article.

I'm really pleased that you pointed out that fairtrade can be cheaper than "standard" lines - so many people think the opposite.

BellaMiller - thank you! I'm really pleased with it and getting some great feedback too, which is always a bonus!
