Connecting Conscious Shoppers with Fairtrade Brands

Today’s shoppers are looking for more than just quality — they want to know the people behind the products are treated fairly and the planet is respected. Fairtrade helps make that connection. Through national campaigns, year-round storytelling, and tools that highlight certified products, we help Canadian consumers discover the brands that share their values.

Fairtrade Month: a national spotlight

Every October, we run Fairtrade Month, a national campaign that celebrates the impact of Fairtrade and the people behind the products. It’s a key moment to shine a spotlight on your brand’s commitment to ethical sourcing.

We provide:

  • A national digital campaign with paid and organic reach
  • Customizable campaign assets for your brand's use
  • Opportunities to be featured in social media, newsletters, and press coverage
  • Campaign toolkits for in-store and online promotion
  • Collaboration opportunities with values-aligned partners

Fairtrade Month is your chance to engage customers, grow brand awareness, and join a movement of Canadians who care about the people behind the products they buy.

The Canadian Fairtrade brands page

The Canadian Fairtrade Brands webpage is a go-to resource for shoppers looking to buy ethically. It features Canadian Fairtrade-certified brands, with direct links to your online store or product pages.

Benefits include:

  • Increased visibility with ethically minded consumers
  • Ongoing promotion via Fairtrade Canada’s social and digital channels
  • Highlighting new or seasonal products throughout the year

We’re proud to promote our partners and help Canadians discover the many ways they can shop Fairtrade.
