Conventional vs Fair Trade

FOOD WORD WISDOM
Conventional Trade vs. Fair Trade
We often see terms like "Fair Trade" on packaging. Do we really understand what it means?
Words like "Conventional Trade" can create a Perception of Quality, Ethics, or Sustainability. Find out why Conventional Trade is None of those things.
Understanding the difference between "Conventional Trade" and "Fair Trade" EmPOWERs us to make informed Choices, especially those that Align with our Values, Nourish our Bodies, and Support Global Communities.
Today, let’s break down these two important terms and uncover what they really mean in the Food Industry.
🔑 The KEY Difference is HOW Goods are Sourced and Sold.
Conventional Trade
🟥 CONVENTIONAL TRADE follows the Traditional Supply Chain where Large Corporations and Middlemen often control Pricing, Labor Conditions, and Distribution.
This Prioritizes Profit, sometimes at the Expense of Fair Wages, Ethical Farming Practices, and Environmental Sustainability.
In Conventional Trade, Farmers and Workers, especially in Developing Countries, may face Unfair Wages, Harsh Working Conditions, and Market Instability.
💡 A RAWmazing Way to Remember: Conventional is Profit Over People.
🔹 Examples Include:
Mass-Produced Bananas, Coffee, and Chocolate sourced from Industrial Farms that may Exploit Labor, use Harmful Pesticides, and Contribute to Deforestation.
FAIR TRADE
🟥 FAIR TRADE is an Alternative System that Prioritizes Ethical Sourcing, Fair Wages, and Sustainable Farming Practices.
It ensures that Farmers and Workers receive a Fair Price for their Products, helping to improve Livelihoods and Create More Sustainable Agricultural Communities.
Fair Trade also Encourages Environmentally Friendly Practices, such as, Reducing Pesticide Use and Supporting Biodiversity. While Fair Trade Foods are often Healthier due to Fewer Chemical Residues, it’s still important to READ INGREDIENT Labels.
💡 A RAWmazing Way to Remember: Fair Trade is Care Trade!
🔹 Examples Include:
Fair Trade Certified Coffee, Chocolate, Bananas, and Coconut Sugar, Ensuring Farmers receive Fair Wages and Work under Ethical Conditions.
FAIR TRADE - BEST Choice
💚 Look for the FAIR TRADE, FAIR TRADE CERTIFIED Labels on Products.
💚 These Labels identify that the Products support Ethical Labor Practices and Environmentally Responsible Sourcing.
💚 Choosing Fair Trade ensures that our Food Choices Contribute to a Healthier Body, a Thriving Planet, and People in our World.

However, we must know what we are doing. And if we want to get to our Optimum Shape correctly, we hire a Personal Trainer or Coach, to show us the proper way how to do our Workout so we can attain our Goal more Efficiently.
In order to Create the Lives we want, we must Exercise our MIND regularly by Monitoring, Creating, Directing and Controlling the Thoughts we want to Think.
