Green Bean becomes first roaster in Manitoba to obtain FTC license!
GreenBean Coffee Imports has become the first Manitoba Roaster to be licensed to sell Fairtrade coffees!
We are very proud to announce that, as of January 1st 2008, we have obtained our Fair Trade license. This means that we are able to place the Fair Trade logo proudly on the front of bags. Transfair is the governing body in Canada that licenses companies wanting to be socially just when purchasing their coffee.
This logo is your guarantee.
It stands for fairness and global social responsibility in international trade.
In Canada, you can find the label on select brands of coffee, tea, chocolate, sugar, fruit (bananas and mangos), cereals (rice and quinoa), spices, cotton garments, wine, roses, and sports balls. Buying Fair Trade Certified products helps make the world a better place by paying farmers and workers in developing countries a fair price.
Learn about Fair Trade Certified products in Canada, and about the rigorous system of global commerce that’s behind the logo. www.transfair.ca
