Being a member of the Fair Trade Federation means we are fully committed to Fair Trade. Each and every trade decision we make is guided by the principles of Fair Trade and each organization that we work with abides by the Nine Principles of Fair Trade:

- * Build Capacity
- * Promote Fair Trade
- * Pay Promptly and Fairly
- * Support Safe and Empowering Working Conditions
- * Ensure the Rights of Children

These nine principles provide the basis for the development of a global trade community highlighting the importance of trust, transparency and respect.
