Where’s Your POV Fairtrade T-shirt

From: Fair Trade Media POVID: 15879

The front of this t-shirt promotes Fair Trade, and the global MAKEPOVERTYHISTORY and Trade Justice campaigns. The central icon is surrounded by the names of the 50 poorest nations. This is reinforced by the slogan ‘Where’s Your POV?’ on the back of the T-shirt—a question we all need to answer.

Our fairtrade organic t-shirts are among the first to carry the official FAIRTRADE label, which guarantees a better deal for "third world" producers.

Made from certified fairtrade & 100% organic cotton.

About the fairtrade certified cotton in our T-shirts: Agrocel is an organisation in India that supplies the cotton in our T-shirts. Agrocel visits cotton farms weekly to get to know each farmer in its service area - over 1,500 strong. When it buys cotton from the farmers, it pays them an 8% premium. If there are no immediate buyers for the cotton, Agrocel stores the cotton in its cotton bank at its cost until it is sold. Agrocel also arranges for the organic certification of the cotton on behalf of the individual farmers.

Fair Trade Media t-shirts are printed by T-shirt and Sons - the only UK Soil Association certified organic t-shirt printer. They specialise in printing t-shirts made from fairtrade and organic cotton.
