Abstract

Much press attention has been paid of late to the subject of fairtrade food and drinks. These products, which ensure that a fair price is paid to farmers and producers in the developing world, are increasingly finding favour among today’s more sophisticated and informed consumers, and some analysts are suggesting that they could be the ‘new organics’. If this is indeed the case, the market holds enormous potential for future expansion, with organic foods having risen from around USD0.4bn in the late 1980s to levels estimated at USD25bn in 2003.Consumer awareness is a particularly crucial issue for a market at such an early stage of its life cycle and there are constant efforts to inform consumers about fair trading. One factor that has helped considerably in recent years is the growing interest of the supermarkets in this sector. The major retailers are becoming increasingly important in fairtrade retailing and several chains around Europe now offer own-label ranges.Although it is perhaps unlikely that fairtrade will emulate the success of organic foods to the same scale, confidence for the future of this market is high and, with growing consumer interest in ethical issues, strong growth is expected to continue. Significantly, sales of fairtrade food and drinks worldwide are currently valued at around EUR300-400m a year, a similar level to the organics market in the late 1980s when it really began to attract consumer interest. If fairtrade foods could attract the same levels of interest as organics have generated in the 1990s and early 2000s, it could reach levels of USD20-25bn by 2020.
