Buy Fair Trade

If you buy a bar of Fair trade chocolate, you get a guarantee that the farmer who grew the cocoa beans for the chocolate was paid a fair price for his crop. The fairtrade scheme and the chocolate companies who are part of the scheme make sure of that. The farmers also get a bit extra for their community - to spend on things like clean water and medical supplies. We stock a range of Fairtrade products including tea, coffee, chocolate, sweets, cards and jewellery items. For more on Fair Trade chocolate, logon to the Divine chocolate site.
