Other Ethical Traders

Our searchable database only includes Fairtrade Certified products and products made by WFTO members as participants in these systems have to demonstrate compliance with fair trade standards and principles through external verification checks.
 
Given this, the Fair Trade Association of Australia and New Zealand cannot directly endorse other products including those sold by FTAANZ members as "fair trade".
 
We encourage consumers to ask companies about the principles and standards behind any fair trade or ethical product claims as well as how such claims can be verified.
 
The following are some websites of FTAANZ members who sell various products which may include some not currently linked to the FLO or IFAT systems. Please ask them about their own ethical trading policies and how any ethical product claims can be verified.
