TransFair USA Gears Up for Fair Trade Month
OAKLAND, Calif. -- TransFair USA, a third-party certifier of Fair Trade products in the United States, is urging retailers to get ready for the third annual Fair Trade Month this October during which supermarkets will be able to promote their Fair Trade Certified product sales with free POS materials and a consumer sweepstakes made available by TransFair USA.
The top prize in the group's Discover Fair Trade Sweepstakes will be a visit to FTC coffee, banana, and cocoa cooperatives in Costa Rica to meet the farmers who grow the products. Twenty additional first-prize winners will receive a basket of FTC products.
Retailers can enter a display contest to compete as well for a chance to go to Costa Rica.
