Fair Trade: Economic Action to create a just global economy for farmers and artisans
  

Fair Trade Your Supermarket

While the Fair Trade movement is gaining steam nationwide, most of our supermarkets still carry few – if any – Fair Trade products on their shelves. Our Fair Trade Your Supermarket campaign aims to change this, putting Fair Trade products within reach for millions of Americans.

Thanks to the success of our Adopt-A-Supermarket campaign in 2006, we have decided to once again target supermarkets, encouraging them to provide more Fair Trade products, but we need YOU!

Visit www.FairTradeYourSupermarket.org to learn about the simple actions you can take to participate in the campaign. You will also find:

1. Postcards and Comment cards to send to your supermarket's CEO and/or Manager, requesting more Fair Trade products.

2. Talking Points to discuss with your Store Manager.

3. Shelf Cards to call attention to Fair Trade products, or the need for a Fair Trade option.

And much more!

These simple actions taken together will increase demand for Fair Trade, thus supporting thousands of marginalized producers around the world! Don’t forget to send us pictures showing how you are participating, so we can display them on our campaign website!
