CRS Fair Trade (#)
„Most sell 100 percent Fair Trade coffee; all sell at least 90 percent Fair Trade coffee and have committed themselves to move toward 100 percent. When you purchase coffee from one of these organizations, you are not only ensuring that the farmers who grew it are receiving a fair price-you are supporting an alternative business model, and voting with your dollars for a value-based system of international trade. CRS endorses the Fair Traders proudly, and encourages Catholics and other conscientious consumers in the United States to purchase coffee from these mission-driven organizations. (Every organization that appears here is a member of the Fair Trade Federation, certifies their coffee Fair Trade through TransFair USA, or both.)“

„But Fair Trade alone will not resolve the injustices built into the architecture of the global “free trade” economy. Catholics who are truly committed to economic and social justice must work over the long term to advocate for enduring change in the very structure of international trading system.“

„Coffee is a significant export for both Ethiopia and Tanzania. Together they exported more $15 million of green coffee to the United States, where it sells for as much as $12 or more per pound. But at the end of 2003, coffee exporters in Ethiopia were getting just 37 cents per pound, and exporters in Tanzania a mere 27 cents! The farmers who grew the coffee, meanwhile, were only getting a fraction of those amounts.“
