Pfanner and Fairtrade celebrate 25 years of partnership
Published
The Vorarlberg family business Pfanner and Fairtrade Austria have been working together for 25 years. The company, based in Lauterach, is best known for its beverages.
Fairtrade is an international organisation that works for fair conditions in global trade. Products bearing the Fairtrade seal are intended to guarantee farmers and workers in developing countries a fair price and better working conditions. Pfanner uses this seal for some of its products and works with the Austrian Fairtrade office to do so.
The Vorarlberg company sees the long-standing collaboration as an important step towards greater sustainability in the food industry. The partners want to continue their joint projects in the future. Specific details about the anniversary celebrations were not mentioned in the report.
For consumers in Austria, the partnership means that when shopping, it is recognisable which products have been manufactured according to Fairtrade standards. The seal helps people make conscious purchasing decisions.
