The pope met with representatives of Fairtrade.<\/p>\n
As a gift, they brought with the \u201cFairtrade\u201d mark, certified by them.<\/p>\n
They gave the pope everything from fabrics to a shirt, and even coffee.<\/p>\n
Kenya coffee?<\/p>\n
Yes, Kenya coffee!<\/p>\n
Pope Francis seemed pleased with their work.<\/p>\n
As Fairtrade explains, they work to guarantee products that ensure better conditions for farmers and small-business owners from the southern hemisphere.<\/p>\n
They establish collaborative trade relations between producers and businesses.<\/p>\n
Besides guaranteeing benefits to producers, the organization certifies that part of the revenue is invested to benefit society, like in hospitals, schools and infrastructure.<\/p>\n
At this meeting, the representatives were able to explain to the pope that with this system they also sell chocolate, wine and even soccer balls.<\/p>\n
