We are very mindful of our heritage here at Traidcraft and being co-founders of the world fair trade movement could either mean a weight on our shoulders to uphold the original vision in all its glory, or a liberating sense of freedom to carry on breaking the normal rules of trade, whenever and wherever we can.

IN THIS EDITION:

We prefer the latter; guarding the flames, not tending the ashes.

There are lots of organisations throughout the world whose philosophy, mission and values are aligned with our own. We call ourselves Fair Trade Organisations (FTOs) and often work together.

We are a member of two larger membership organisations:

The World Fair Trade Organisation (WFTO), which is a larger global membership body of FTOs and importantly includes membership in the global South - in other words, producers from Africa, Central and Latin America and Asia who are seeking to benefit from fair trade.

The European Fair Trade Association (EFTA), which is a group of likeminded FTOs in Europe, collaborating in product development, purchasing, fairly traded and organic goods.

TRAIDCRAFT IS A CHRISTIAN RESPONSE TO POVERTY. Traidcraft was founded in 1979 by a group of Christians who wanted to challenge the deep injustices embedded in global trade.

We want to remain true to our origins. We do not want to stop until trade is conducted fairly for the benefit of all who participate in the supply chain.

We welcome everyone to join in our endeavour of making trade fair. We work with supporters of all faiths and none, and we work with farmers and artisans whatever their creed, ethnicity or religion.

We believe that justice transcends ideology and individual beliefs.

Summer Welcome to

2022

The buzz of seasonal excitement in the air is palpable. From summer fetes, ti street and garden parties - summer 2022 has 'celebration' written all over it. And we're here for it!

And most importantly, we thank you; individuals who can hold their heads up high and say they did what they could for future generations, and whom without, our work would be impossible.

Whatever the summer has in store for you, you can trust Traidcraft to supply a backdrop of ethical food and drink to be enjoyed all summer long.

Best wishes,

Our summer 2022 collection showcases the best of the best in ethical food and drink.

We champion the farmers who think beyond the next harvest, who savour the soil and who nurture nature.

We applaud the suppliers who reduce their waste, who cut their emissions and who are resourceful in their energy usage.

How is Our Decaf Coffee

Decaffeinated?

First, the beans are

2

Then, under very high pressure, C02 is added

soaked in water.

(in a supercritical state between liquid and gas.)

Traidcraft coffee is decaffeinated using an organic process; a simple, toxic solvent-free extraction using CO2 and water.

The C02 acts like a magnet and pulls only the caffeine out of the saturated bean.

Then you have your decaffeinated coffee beans.

Climate Change and Coffee

A transparent update from Traidcraft regarding changes which will be taking place from now.

Recent months have seen unprecedented effects on the world’s coffee industry. With intermittent café closures and more of us staying at home, the demand for coffee has been turbulent to say the least. The current challenges that global supply chains and

Unfortunately, for all producers of coffee beans, these are not the only challenges being faced.

Brazil is the world’s largest coffee producer. However, recent droughts, coupled with severe frosts due to climate change, have had a crippling effect on their coffee bean harvests. Other key coffee producing regions including Central America and North Africa have also been severely affected by climate change-related weather events. Many countries that are key suppliers of raw materials are also still battling the effects of the COVID pandemic.

Traidcraft, alongside all worldwide coffee retailers, have found both sourcing and pricing of raw materials to be incredibly volatile at the minute, and as such, we have had to make a few changes, which you will see implemented across our coffee range.

Due to the seasonality of coffee harvests, some origins are proving more difficult than others to source. Following discussions with our key suppliers, we

have decided to amalgamate some of our product ranges in order to secure supply, whilst still ensuring the freshness we require to keep the high quality that we pride ourselves on. These merges will ensure the blend is always as fresh as it can be and will equate to a fresher tasting coffee year-round! Keep an eye out for these new blends coming into stock soon.

We have also worked closely with our logistics partners to streamline our procurement and manufacturing processes. This ensures our supply chain is as robust and sustainable as it can be, and we have been able to remove some additional transport through more direct sourcing.

Unfortunately, price increases are going to be unavoidable. This is a global issue which you can expect to see across all of your favourite coffee brands; any who are not lifting their prices could be compromising on quality and fairness throughout their supply chains. Our promise is 100% transparency and that we will keep these additional costs to a minimum.

Climate change is real, and it’s happening now. Smallholder farmers in Tunisia are among those who are suffering most with the effects of climate change, but who contribute least to its acceleration.

For these Tunisian farmers, climate change means long periods of drought; the fruits of their date palms are becoming increasingly dry.

Climate change is happening.

Climate change is happening now.

But it’s not too late.

For People and Planet…

For over 40 years, we’ve built longlasting relationships with innovative partners from all over the world, and brought their goods directly to you.

During these years, climate change has gradually become a bigger and bigger challenge. We are increasingly concerned and worried about the killer effects climate change is having on us and on them.

You just have to take a look on page 15 to see the devastating effects droughts, coupled with severe frosts due to climate change, have had on Brazil, and the knock on effect this has had on the global coffee market.

Fair trade farmers and artisans respect and care for the environment.

Many fair trade farmers and producers care for the environment by committing to a range of eco-activities including: Maximising their use of sustainable energy and raw materials Minimising waste and pollution, often by using recycled materials within their craft Reducing their water usage Protecting the soil by practicing organic farming methods Reducing deforestation by intercropping trees and crops Receiving training on mitigating the killer effects of climate change

Why not do your bit and challenge yourself to make one simple swap in this week’s shop (or buy a case)?

Cereal, tea, coffee, sugar, pasta… it could be anything! Switch a nonfair trade product for its fair trade counterpart, and rest assured the environment will thank you.

Fairly Traded Raisins From Mi Fruta Co-Operative, Chile

The succulent raisins you'll find in our muesli come from Mi Fruta; a small, fair trade cooperative in Chile. Formed in 2009, Mi Fruta have over a decade of experience in working with Traidcraft, improving soil management and yields. It is our privilege today to speak to Mi Fruta growers, Angelina Hernández and Juan Pizarro Lemus.

Juan: Yes, I harvest grapes in large bins and transfer them onto my tractor, then take them to the drying field that is shared with two other partners of Mi Fruta. There we spread them on the drying court where they are scattered on a mesh. The grapes are dried using only the sun to become raisins (no artificial heat or oven), turning frequently so that they dry evenly. The drying process takes about 15 days. Once the grapes dry and are converted into raisins, they are collected in large bins and taken to the processing plant.

Does the fair trade co-operative benefit you and your whole community?

Angelina: Yes, since the first year we have supported neighborhood councils, schools and sports clubs. Last year we distributed boxes of merchandise to several families who were experiencing economic problems due to COVID-19.

Juan: Here in my town, Calle del Medio, we have supported a special school and a kindergarten. Working in a fair trade co-operative means a lot since we are small producers and associativity has allowed us to continue

in production and sell at a fair price.

Does climate change present a challenge for the co-operative? If so, are there measures in place to combat the effects of climate change?

Angelina: We have irrigation located on the plot, and this year with the help of the government, we co-financed an accumulator dam. Now we want to apply for solar panels for the irrigation pump.

Juan: In addition, we apply compost to improve the amount of organic matter in the soils. I also plant between rows as a method of weed control.

Is there anything else you'd like us to share with the customers who buy your raisins?

Angelina: Hopefully more fair trade raisins will be sold, so that we have more premium to be able to help the community.

Thanks so much to you both, we’ve loved getting an insight into your world!

So, the next time you scoop up a spoonful of delicious, fair trade muesli, you can start your mornings knowing that you’re not only getting a wholesome breakfast, but you’re helping to support growers like Angelina and traidcraftshop.co.uk 35

Trees, glorious trees. Not only are they beautiful, but they’re vital for the health of our planet. Trees absorb carbon, offsetting harmful by-products of fossil-fuel burning, and improve air quality by giving off oxygen, as well as providing shade, shelter and safety for birds and other species.

Trees also play a key role in capturing rainwater and reducing the risk of natural disasters like floods and landslides.

Planting trees across the world is one of the biggest (and most reasonable!) ways to fight the climate crisis.

See, we told you they were amazing!

That’s why we’re supporting Ecologi, who run tree planting projects in countries where some of your favourite Traidcraft products are grown and harvested. You can check out their website to see where the trees are planted, and find out more information on some of the innovative environmental projects they are running, too.

Surprising Things That Aren’t Always Vegan

With plenty of meat-free produce and vegan alternatives on the market, opting for a vegan lifestyle has never been easier.

However, there are a number of everyday items we come into contact with all the time, which you may be surprised to find aren’t always vegan. Read on for eight things you never knew weren’t vegan. Which one shocks you the most?

1 3 2 4 Sugar

Made in the leaves of the sugarcane plant and stored as a sweet juice in sugar cane stalks – sugar is as natural an ingredient as they come, right? Wrong. Many cheaper sugars use bone char from slaughtered cattle to remove the colour from sugar, so that it appears crisp, white and aesthetically pleasing. Yuck!

Lemons

Wait a minute, now you’re telling us fruit isn’t always vegan? Yes, you read that correctly. If you opt for a slice of waxed lemon to pop in your G&T, you might be surprised to hear that there’s a strong chance this lemon isn’t vegan. The coating on a waxed lemon is typically comes from shellac, which is made up of a resin secreted *shudder* by the female lac bug, found in India and Thailand, before being processed and dissolved in alcohol. Eww! Hold the lemon, we’ll just take the ice this time, thanks!

50 traidcraftshop.co.uk

Toilet Roll /Kitchen Roll Many big brands can’t guarantee that chemicals added during manufacture of their toilet and kitchen roll aren’t animal derived, meaning they cannot be classified as vegan. Traidcraft’s range of recycled kitchen and loo roll is 100% vegan.

Notebooks

Surely most paper is made from pulped wood, meaning notebooks can’t possibly not be vegan?

You’d be forgiven for thinking this! However, the glue used to bind and stiffen the spine of many notebooks can contain gelatin, and many inks contain animal byproducts, meaning they aren’t suitable for vegans. Did you know that VENT for Change notebooks use natural resins, rather than those containing gelatin, meaning they are suitable for vegans.

5 6 7 8 Everyday Cards

Alcohol

It’s time to wind down after a busy week; are you topping up your glass with a delicious wine, or perhaps even popping the cork of a bottle of fizz? Well, if you’re vegan, we recommend you check the ingredients before you take a sip! Why isn’t all wine vegan? Isinglass, a kind of gelatin obtained from fish, is often used as a fining agent in wines, and many budget Champagne-style fizzy wines use egg whites to remove tannin particles, so that the wine is more round and soft in texture.

Breakfast Cereals

Living a vegan lifestyle and opting for a bowl of cereal with a splash of dairy-free milk, instead of a meaty full English breakfast… surely you’re safe?

Unfortunately, not always. Some breakfast cereals, especially those with claims that they’re ‘fortified with vitamins and minerals’, cannot be classed as vegan as they may contain animal byproducts. Traidcraft’s granola and muesli are vegan.

Crayons

Many art supplies, including crayons and marker pens, aren’t always vegan. Why not? Gelatin and shellac are among the main culprits making these products non-vegan. Marker dyes can also contain stearic acid, made from animal fats, most often obtained by cooking down beef remains. Gross!

It is possible to obtain stearic acid from vegetables, however, it’s a more readily available and cheaper option for companies to traidcraftshop.co.uk 51

FOOD & DRINK

Similar to notebooks, the everyday cards we purchase for special occasions aren’t always vegan. The moistureactivated glue used to seal the envelope often contains gelatin, a byproduct of the meat industry. You can rest assured that the cello and envelope glue used within Traidcraft’s everyday cards range is vegan.

Traidcraft's Commitment To The Planet

Traidcraft Sugar

As part of our commitment to the environment, we’re always looking for ways to lower our carbon output as a company. A recent switch in packaging has seen a huge reduction in the plastic used across our own-brand sugar and rice ranges.

A move from flat bottomed bags to ‘pillow’ style bags reduces the plastic in each bag

75%

Traidcraft Long Grain White Rice A switch to longer, thinner bags to house our rice reduces the amount of plastic in each bag by 75%.

Head to YouTube to see how Traidcraft are tackling climate change and fighting for environmental justice, step by step.
