NEWS, the Network of European World Shops represents 3000 shops and EFTA, the European Fair Trade Association has 13 ATO members in 10 European countries with US$160 million in annual wholesale and retail sales.

„The heterogeneity of the movement makes it difficult to reach general conclusions of fair trade's effectiveness in offering a'good deal' to Southern producers. There is no single or commonly agreed set of measurable criteria against which the quality of all trade can be assessed, although there is a Code of Practice which has been subscribed to by all members of the International Federation for Alternative Trade (IFAT), which was founded in 1989 and aims to provide a forum for Southern producers and Northern importers (IFAT, 1993).“
