Background of Taiwan

Work in Process (-week 5-)
After all this time I am waiting for an email reply from the State of qatar, but not replied. Finally I decided to replace the export destination. Finally, I export the passion fruit syrup to Taiwan.

-The Meaning Of Fair Trade-

Fair trade is an organized social movement and market-based approach that aims to help producers in developing countries make better trading conditions and promote sustainability. The movement advocates the payment of a higher price to producers as well as higher social and environmental standards. It focuses in particular on exports from developing countries to developed countries, most notably handicrafts, coffee, cocoa, sugar, tea, bananas, honey, cotton, wine, fresh fruit, chocolate, flowers and gold.






 Real developmental Fair Trade is not a gimmick to make more profit but it is a movement that seeks the promotion of the Human Rights and the principles of equality and justice in trade. It is the unfair balance in economics that is the source of pain and hardship, disease and death for millions. The world is filed with food but the few own the food or the many. The poor just can't buy it and the rich will not lower the prices, they are greedy for profit and grow fat on unjust profits. Fair traders gives just wages, fair payments for products and helps people overcome all kinds of exploitation, social injustice and exploitation. When you want to know who is the real fair trade organization just research what development products are they funding with their earnings. They ought to have a direct involvement with the poor.

Fair Trade is more than ethical trading. It spends human effort and earnings to better the lives of the poor. It should not be supporting the rich and powerful.
