Can we continue to sell raw ingredients such as sugar, cocoa or pasta?
Items such as muesli, pasta, sugar and cocoa intended for pupils to take home rather than consume in school do not fall under the standards and can continue to be sold as before. Links Young Co-operatives is a not-for-profit organisation that offers young people (usually aged 13-17) a practical introduction to fair trade and co-operative ways of working. It gives them the chance to run their own co-operative selling fairly traded products, acquiring valuable business skills and making a real difference to the lives of producers in poor countries and their families.
