What makes Fair Trade helps farmers and producers all around the world to obtain fair prices for their goods while also supporting better working conditions. We believe in fairer more sustainable practises that Fair Trade aspires to and therefore feel strongly that platforming such an engaging event as Fair Trade Fiesta will not only provide people with positive and uplifting experience but also educate and inspire consumers to keep buying and supporting the Fair Trade and Fairtrade products.

Fair Trade Fiesta is proud to celebrate Scotland's Fair Trade Nation recent renewal status, this celebration event engaging young people, schools and universities, interfaith groups, community groups, disability groups, Fair Trade organisations/businesses and individuals.
