Oxfam Shop is a passionate supporter of fair trade and deals on a fair trade basis with more than 100,000 producer partners around the world, including indigenous Australians. Through fair trade we are part of a global movement calling for an end to unfair trade practices. Fair trade empowers disadvantaged men and women by paying them fair and stable prices for their work, helping them to gain the skills they need to develop their business, and giving them access to world markets.

Oxfam Shop is registered as a Fair Trade Organisation by the International Fair Trade Association (IFAT) and shares its goals:

• Commitment to fair trade
• Transparency in business practices
• Ethical workplaces
• Equal employment opportunities
• Concern for people and the environment
• Education about and advocacy of fair trade.

All our tea, coffee, cocoa, and chocolate carry the Fairtrade logo and we are adding more Fairtrade products all the time. The Fairtrade logo is your guarantee that the product has been produced and traded in accordance with international fair trade standards. Many of our overseas producer partners are registered as Fair Trade Organisations and our Australian suppliers need to assure us that their products meet minimum ethical requirements.
