Nearly there: nearly FAIR!

Wellington’s quest to become a Fair Trade City and join other cities around the world like London, Rome and San Francisco is gathering momentum. Now with over 1000 signatures on the e-petition, hundreds of cars sporting Make Wellington Fair bumper stickers and growing business commitment we need your help.

Before August 7th Wellingtonians need to make time to demonstrate what it is that sets them apart from the rest of the country: that they are leading the way in New Zealand  in a global movement that guarantees a fair price for farmers in the developing world who produce some of our favourite products. 

We need Wellingtonians to show their support by signing the e-petition, going in to any café serving Fairtrade Certified coffee or the Trade Aid shop to grab a bumper sticker to slap on their car, use Fairtrade Certified products at their workplace, school, church, club or community group and register this with the Fair Trade Association (www.fairtrade.org.nz).  Read More
