Oxfam, High Street  “Oxfam was one of the pioneers of Fair Trade more than forty years ago. Since then, we have been involved in every aspect of Fair Trade and have contributed to its success in the UK. In 1991, Oxfam helped found a Fair Trade coffee company called Café direct that is now the UK’s sixth-largest coffee brand. A year later, we helped to set up the Fairtrade Foundation, which controls use of the FAIRTRADE Mark in the UK.”

Waitrose
, High Street “Waitrose stocks one of the widest ranges of Fairtrade products: around 145 products ranging from coffee, tea and cocoa to chocolate, cereals, fruit, biscuits and snacks.”
“Waitrose was the first supermarket to sell loose Fairtrade bananas, thanks to our partnership with a group of 100 small growers on the Windward Islands. We guarantee them a year-round fair price, and regularly send our buyers and agronomy specialists to the Islands to offer advice and help with anything from fertilisers to packaging. All bananas sold at Waitrose are now Fairtrade.”
 “We also sell Fairtrade roses from Kenya, where communities choose where the Fairtrade money will be spent. At Waitrose, all fairly-traded products meet our high standards of quality.”
