Welcome To Pickering FairtradeTown
Pickering's Fairtrade Status
When Pickering was granted Fairtrade Town status in May 2008, we knew it was just the beginning of an important journey towards encouraging ever-increasing support for Fairtrade products in our shops, ever more cafés offering Fairtrade beverages and foods, and of course, more Pickering people understanding the importance of the Fairtrade Mark and looking for it on products.
We can't be more pleased at the help and support we have had from so many residents and retailers around out town. But we are not resting on past successes.
This website is designed to help you help us to help the many Fairtrade producers and growers for whom Fairtrade has become a lifeline.
What you can do
- Look for the Fairtrade Mark and choose products that carry it.
-
Always, always ask for Fairtrade tea, coffee, cocoa and other items when you visit a café or restaurant.
