  „But with support since 1994 from the US National Cooperative Business Association, some 19,000 small-scale coffee farmers have organized in 16 organic cooperatives and 493 producer groups to create a national cooperative structure known as the Cooperativa Café Timor. Since the 1999 referendum, the NCBA project has worked quickly and under difficult conditions, in order to help East Timor farmers export their crop.“

  „PROVIDE FINANCIAL AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT - Small-scale farmers and artisans in the developing countries lack access to affordable financing, impeding their profitability. When requested, fair traders provide financial assistance either through direct loans, prepayment or by linking producers with sources of financing. They also often provide other critical technical assistance and support such as market information, product feedback and training in financial management. Fair traders establish long-term relationships with their producers and help them adapt production for changing trends.“
