It depends on several factors:
- Their cost of producing the goods must be covered by the purchaser
- Pay a premium set by Fairtrade which will help the producer develop further
- Pay a fair price set by Fairtrade for whatever the produce is
Fairtrade sets the premium for each individual producer, which the buyer must pay. This could be anything from £5 into the hundreds of £'s. It depends on how much money the producer needs to improve the lives of their families and their business. For example, to cover healthcare costs.
The buyer must also pay for half of the produce in advance, upfront, before Fairtrade allows them to collect the product they are buying.
The Fairtrade charity has received full support and some funding from the British (UK) government. Most Fairtrade products are sold in the UK.
