Support Fairtrade, Support Gedling

Help us to gain Fairtrade status for Gedling Borough

Cup of coffee

  • Do you run a shop, restaurant / cafe or business in Gedling?
  • Do you use Fairtrade goods (such as tea, coffee and sugar) in your staff room?
  • Do you sell Fairtrade products in Gedling Borough?

If you can answer ‘YES’ to any of the above questions then Gedling Fairtrade Group want to hear from you!

The Gedling Fairtrade Group is working hard to achieve Fairtrade status for the borough of Gedling and we’re very close to reaching our goal. Fairtrade status requires 23 outlets to sell Fairtrade products as well as 12 restaurants or cafes. The Fairtrade Foundation also expects a good range of employers and community groups to use Fairtrade products if status is to be awarded.

So, take a look at our directory page, if you’re not already listed then we don’t know about you and that means you can contribute towards Gedling becoming a Fairtrade Borough.

If you would like to know more about becoming a business which uses or sells Fairtrade products then please contact us.

Visit our Fairtrade Products page to find out what’s available.
