Fair trade gifts are available in various forms, including clothing, jewelry, chocolate, fruit baskets, and coffee. While some items may not be found in physical stores, they can be purchased online. Fair trade products benefit disadvantaged manufacturers and farmers while offering quality goods.

There are many different types of fair trade gifts, including clothing and accessories, fruit and sweets. In fact, almost any item can be bought at the fair trade if you look closely. Sometimes, fair trade gifts are not available in physical stores, but can be found in an Internet store. Whatever the occasion, there is likely to be a suitable fair trade gift to give.

For coffee lovers, a fair trade gift could be a bag of fair trade coffee or a gift certificate to a coffee shop that sells fair trade coffee drinks. This is one of the easiest fair trade products to find, because some of the more popular coffee shops now serve fair trade coffee. For example, Starbucks® has sourced more than 80% of its coffee from ethical sources and aims to source only Fair Trade products by 2015.

Clothing is another type of fair trade product that can make a great gift. It can be difficult to find fair trade clothing in physical stores in some regions of the world, but there are many options available online. Fair trade clothing benefits economically disadvantaged manufacturers by offering them a reasonable price for their wares. The quality of the clothing is usually on par with or, in many cases, exceeds that of mass-produced clothing.

Fair trade jewelry benefits both the manufacturers who make the jewelry and the people who mine the stones and metal for the pieces. Like fair trade clothing, fair trade jewelry is not widely found in brick and mortar stores because mass-produced items are less expensive and available in larger quantities. However, you don’t have to buy a specific piece of jewelry to give as a gift; many fair trade organizations offer gift cards to give to friends.

Another type of fair trade good is chocolate, which can be bought in bars or powder to make hot chocolate or baked goods. Fairtrade chocolate comes from producers who grow their own beans. It is widely available in internet shops and health food stores.

Fair trade gifts can also be in the form of gift baskets, such as fruit baskets. Grocery stores, especially organic ones, sometimes sell fair trade fruit such as bananas. Normally these items are marked as such with a sign or sticker affixed directly to the fruit. Fairtrade fruit may be especially rare in some jurisdictions because the fruit trade is mostly owned by large corporations rather than the average farmer.
