Tradewinds
Tradewinds Coffee and Tea Pty Ltd is a non-profit organization, formed in 1977 to help alleviate global poverty in
practical ways. Tradewinds pioneered the ideals of "poverty relief through trade" and "fair trade" - which are now
widely practiced.
Our Products
Tradewinds was the first supplier to Australians of fair trade tea. It imports and distributes tea and coffee products
from communities in East Timor, Papua New Guinea, and Sri Lanka. It imports value added products wherever possible so
that the full economic benefits remain with producers.
Fair trade - what does it mean?
Fair trade certification guarantees that:
- Farmers receive a fair and stable price for their products and, as a result, have the opportunity to improve their lives
- Farming methods are sustainable and have greater respect for the environment
- Small-scale farmers gain a stronger position in world markets and have closer links to consumers
Value Adding - what does it mean?
When coffee or tea is grown, picked and packed in the country of origin, all profits, jobs and benefits remain
in that country.
By buying Tradewinds tea and coffee for your office you are selecting top quality products for your office AND
contributing to projects in developing countries. All surplus profits made by Tradewinds are given to projects in East
Timor, PNG and Sri Lanka. This support makes a difference.
