Fair Trade Coffee
Indigo
is a Certified Fair Trade Roaster committed to offering a full line
of Fair Trade Coffees. Fair Trade is an innovative approach to empowering
Developing World farmers who are typically disadvantaged in conventional
trade. Through fair prices, direct trade, access to credit and environmental
stewardship, Fair Trade helps farming families improve their nutrition
and healthcare, keep their kids in school and re-invest in their farms.
Fair Trade guarantees these farmers a minimum price per pound for their
harvest, regardless of the volatile world coffee market.
Furthermore, Fair Trade coffee is grown by artisan farmers with a tradition of excellence going back generations. Fair Trade enables these farmers to continue giving their crops the care that produces quality, even during times of market instability.
Indigo is certified by TransFair USA, a non-profit certification agency. TransFair USA is the only organization in the US that monitors adherence to internationally recognized Fair Trade standards, verifying claims of social responsibility through independent third-party certification.
