Is Fair Trade Coffee Just A Marketing Ploy?

It’s time to set the record straight about fair trade coffee and other products that are grown and harvested under the Fair Trade Commission. Since we all know that buying products which support fair pay, good conditions, and potential for growth is high on our social conscious, we want to ensure we don’t financially support companies that don’t offer these things.

The Fair Trade Commission was designed to ensure that as a country we are purchasing products that are grown and produce by people that are fairly treated and paid for their labor.

There are some people that feel the fair trade concept is a marketing ploy that is being used to raise sales for certain companies. It is a proven fact that most people will spend more money for a product, if you appeal to their guilt. And people have stopped buying certain products if they suspect that the product was grown or produce by ill gotten gains.

Since people generally want to be involved in the betterment of the world it is a simple choice to support coffee that has been said to be produced under the safe and respectable guarantees.

We all know that our environment, and many of the world’s people have been harshly abused for decades and centuries. We know that when we purchase the marketed goods that are made by workers in developing countries we are supporting their own autonomy. Believing in the good of the sale and knowing are said to be two different things.

The truth is, is that this is not a marketing ploy. For years, the Fair Trade Commission has been trying to make a difference in the way workers have been treated. They have been striving to help the small, private farms and villages make a profitable living. And the Commission has helped to educate farmers how to keep the land healthy and profitable for future crops, without any further damage to the land, water or animals that surround their growing fields. Fair trade coffee is part of this program and is marked with the Fair Trade symbol.
