Fair Trade Federation Code of Practice
Friday, January 20, 2012(Fair Trade Federation)
In September 2008, the Fair Trade
Federation Board unanimously adopted nine
Principles of
Fair Trade. The
Principles, as adapted from the standards
of the World Fair Trade Organization to focus
on businesses operating in North
America, provide an overarching framework
for members and ways that the Federation seeks
to live its
values.
Through an
extensive process of member and stakeholder
engagement, the Federation has worked to define
best practices in fair trade. In
September of 2009, the Fair Trade Federation
Board of Directors officially adopted the Fair
Trade Federation Code of Practice. This
document describes the ways in which businesses
can embody the 9 Principles of Fair Trade in
each of their trading
relationships.
