Home Supermarket Action Email Campaign Supermarket Award Toolkit What is Fairtrade ?

The winner for the Best Fairtrade Supermarket of 2008 goes to New World, Victoria Park Auckland with the runner up prize going to Fresh Choice - Roslyn, Dunedin.

The supermarkets were voted for by the public and judged by the Fair Trade Association, Oxfam and Worldvision. The winner was chosen based on the range of Fairtrade Certified Product available, number of nominations received and it's support for Fairtrade

Even though the winner has been chosen for 2008 it's never to late to rate your supermarket and let us know if it should be applauded for it’s commitment to Fairtrade. You could nominate it for the 2009 award!

Fairtrade has made a difference to millions of producers, their families and communities across some of the poorest countries in the world. Kiwi consumers are becoming increasingly more conscious of what products they are buying and are asking real questions about their origins – was child labour involved in making my favourite chocolate bar? Does my daily cup of coffee exploit the farmer who has produced it? Does my cup of tea harm the environment due to the number of chemicals and pesticides used in production?

It is important that New Zealand supermarkets recognize this and respond to consumer demand for more Fairtrade Certified products. So tell us about your local supermarket – what do they have on their shelves, have their Fairtrade products increased recently, have you been in and asked for Fairtrade and received a positive response? We want to know!
