All that can be (ATCB)
The original FAIRTRADE mark means that all the ingredients in a product that can be Fairtrade are Fairtrade, and those ingredients are fully traceable (kept separate from non-certified products) from farm to shelf. You can see this mark on single-ingredient products such as coffee, bananas, tea, chocolate, cocoa and flowers.
