Equal Exchange has challenged
traditional trade models for over
20 years. Starting with the coffee
industry in 1986, we have since
provided market access to small-scale
tea producers and cacao farmers
internationally. More recently, we
began working with small- and
family- sized nut and fruit farmers
here in the United States. Now it’s
time to tackle the very challenging
banana market. Why? According to
the USDA, the average American
eats 26 pounds of bananas per year.
That’s a lot of bananas - and a big
opportunity for impact. The banana
industry is notorious for low wages
and heavy chemical use, causing
major health problems across
banana producing regions. Together,
Equal Exchange and our banana partners are
creating a trade model that respects
farmers, builds communities, and
supports the environment. By buying
Equal Exchange bananas, you are
choosing to connect yourself to these
courageous banana farmers who are
making history for themselves, and
quite possibly, for the entire banana
industry.
