Fair Hero Mission
Our mission is it to empower Guatemala Women by given them a chance to sell their products online.
The goal is poverty reduction through trade, the commitment to improve the socio-economic conditions of economically marginalised Producers and Workers in Guatemala, and trade justice are our organisation’s priority.
We follow the following fair-trade standards:
❤ Transparency:
All terms and conditions of Fairtrade transactions are detailed in contracts signed by the producers and buyers.
❤ Fair price:
Producers receive at least a Fairtrade Minimum Price, which aims at covering average costs of sustainable production, or the market price, whichever is higher.
❤ Fairtrade Premium:
On top of the price, producers receive a Fairtrade Premium, which they can invest in their own development, according to their needs, e.g. for schools.
Producers receive sourcing plans and information about market prospects, to enable them to better plan their activities.
❤ Pre-finance:
Producers have access to pre-finance, to help them fund their operations.
❤ Trading with integrity:
Operators along the Fairtrade supply chains do not engage in unfair trading practices.
❤ Labour and environment:
Traders in Fairtrade supply chains comply with labour and environmental law.
