Fair Trade Month

Fair Trade Month is about supporting businesses that are fair trade certified. Fair Trade businesses seek to create a more equal international trade system through increased respect and transparency. This puts an emphasis on trading fairly with businesses from developing countries. During this month, Americans are encouraged to #FindFairTrade through stores in their own communities or by purchasing through Fair Trade partners online.

To begin, let’s discuss what fair trade means. When an item is marked as fair trade certified, the company that sells the products had to meet rigorous criteria that truly make a difference.  The premise is to provide fair living wages to the artisans who make the product, increase respect for the artisans, and to help businesses in developing countries. By providing fair wages, the workers (or artisans) are able to have a stable income and truly change their lives.

At Maddaloni Jewel we make sure all the jewelry we sell has the same respect from acquiring the jewels to making the jewelry you wear.

We are extremely passionate about the opportunity Fair Trade provides to the artisans that we work with around the globe.

Help us support fair trade Month by coming into Maddaloni Jewelers and asking us about our fair trade jewelry and how we help support the Community.
