Much of the food and drink we enjoy is made using crops grown in less developed countries.

Many smallholder farmers are trapped in poverty – they can’t get a good price for their crops.

Producers can come together and form a co-operative to help meet their economic and social needs.

Fairtrade gives smallholders more control over their lives and the means to improve their position.

Producers must meet Fairtrade standards, which improve conditions for workers.

Today, over a billion people are members of co-operatives around the world. Co-operatives can bring together producers, workers, consumers and communities. Co-operatives are at the heart of Fairtrade, providing 75% of Fairtrade products. They provide ownership, control, democratic decision-making and meet the needs of their members, be it access to healthcare, finance, food or transport.
The Co-operative Group is the largest of nearly 5,000 co-operatives in the UK. Co-operatives aren't just a shop – for many they are a way of life.

APICOOP was set up to produce honey, which The Co-operative has purchased for many years. Blueberries were a good crop for APICOOP to diversify into – they grow well where APICOOP famers live and can be pollinated by their bees.
APICOOP is a co-operative that brings together over 300 producers from across Chile.

The Fairtrade blueberry crops provide opportunities for women to earn an income.
The Fairtrade premium pays for the land on which blueberries grow, and for agricultural equipment to improve APICOPP’s ability to produce and harvest blueberries.
