it helps them because they get then fair amount of money
Nowadays, people are very concerned about others and the environment. Fair Trade cocoa helps the cocoa farmers and the environment. The farmers get paid fairly for their cocoa with fair trade. Also, because they get paid more, they can leave the cocoa in its natural habitat, where it grows better. When they do that, they will not cut down forests or use as much fertilizer or pesticides (Helping the environment).
Fair trade doesn't do anything to the chocalate its just the ingredients that are fair trade. Because we can't grow cocoa in brittain we have to get cocoa from places that can grow it. So we trade the farmers a fair ammount of something in return for the things we need to make foods or clothes or other things.
As of now, KitKat products are not fully Fair Trade certified. However, Nestlé has made commitments to sourcing cocoa sustainably through its Cocoa Plan, which aims to improve the lives of cocoa farmers and ensure sustainable practices. While some KitKat varieties may contain cocoa sourced from Fair Trade certified farms, the brand as a whole does not carry an official Fair Trade certification. Always check packaging for the latest sourcing information.
Fair-trade gives a fair price for the farmers who grow the cocoa, this is so they can have enough to live on (inputs for their farms, school fees, medicine, doctor's fees, transport and clothes, ect.) plus a profit to spend or save. In some cases, money from fair-trade is used for development projects in developing countries. Most cocoa growing countries are mostly in less economically developed countries so they would need more help for development which fair-trade can provide to them.

When a product is certified as being 'fair trade' it means that those who grew the cocoa beans received a fair price and that those who harvested the beans were paid a fair wage. There is no difference in type and quality of these beans from other beans, and thus there is no difference in the chocolate. However, fair trade chocolate is more expensive because of the higher (fairer) price paid to the growers and workers.
Fair trade offers a variety of products, including coffee, chocolate, and handicrafts. Fair trade coffee is sourced from farmers who receive fair wages and work under sustainable conditions. Fair trade chocolate ensures that cocoa farmers are compensated fairly and promotes ethical farming practices. Handicrafts, such as textiles and home goods, support artisans in developing countries, allowing them to earn a fair income while preserving their cultural heritage.
