„Along with other new buzzwords such as "certified sustainable" and "responsibly traded," Fair Trade Certified food products are being embraced with surprising speed by some of the nation's biggest food marketers -- and not just the alternative natural food stores. Last fall, Dunkin' Donuts rolled out Fair Trade Certified coffee; Starbucks sells it, too.“

Transfair USA | On Your Campus
„Yale University took another step forward in their efforts to bring Fair Trade Certified coffee to their campus. In November 2002, the Yale College Council and the Sustainable Food Committee unanimously passed resolutions requesting that all non-flavored coffee sold in the dining halls be Fair Trade Certified. Loyola University administrators acknowledged the overwhelming demand from students, faculty and staff and decided to provide the Fair Trade Certified coffee option on campus. Students are continuing to raise awareness around Fair Trade tea and chocolate.“

Transfair USA | Fair Trade Overview
„Fair Trade is an innovative, market-based approach to sustainable development. Fair Trade helps family farmers in developing countries to gain direct access to international markets, as well as to develop the business capacity necessary to compete in the global marketplace. By learning how to market their own harvests, Fair Trade farmers are able to bootstrap their own businesses and receive a fair price for their products. This leads to higher family living standards, thriving communities and more sustainable farming practices.“

„By guaranteeing farmers a fair and sustainable price, Fair Trade allows cocoa farmers to invest in post-harvest techniques that bring out the individual flavors of the particular cocoa-growing region. Fair Trade cocoa beans aren't "faceless" cocoa beans bought on an international exchange, but beans that can be traced back to an individual cooperative and even individual farmers.“
