Working together to end poverty and injustice

Take action

There are plenty of easy and effective ways to support Fairtrade and make a real difference.

Check Out Fairtrade

Buying Fairtrade products helps thousands of struggling growers in the developing world work their way out of poverty.

We need to tell our supermarkets we want them to stock more Fairtrade labelled products.

And unless sales of Fairtrade bananas increase soon, they won’t be available in New Zealand for much longer. We urgently need to convince more supermarkets to stock Fairtrade bananas – giving banana growers in Ecuador the opportunity to work their way out of poverty.
