07.27.23 — Fairtrade – Small Roaster Program

Supporting coffee farmers is crucial. Especially smallholder farmers who produce 80% of the world’s coffee but often struggle to earn a decent living. Fairtrade Canada has taken action by introducing the Know the Source small-roaster program, for cafés and restaurants that offer Fairtrade-certified coffee. Canadians have the power to make a difference by choosing Fairtrade coffee, directly contributing to the well-being of over 750,000 coffee farmers. This support helps them thrive in an uncertain market, ensuring they receive fair incomes, protect their local environment, and invest in their farms and communities.

The team at Fairtrade Canada entrusted us with the exciting task of designing and developing a logo mark and digital toolkit for this program to be used by the participating establishments. The logo, featuring a hand holding a single coffee bean, represents the dedication of Fairtrade coffee farmers. Alongside captivating illustrations and enlightening educational facts, these visuals shed light on the challenges faced by coffee farmers in today’s world. We hope that every sip of Fairtrade coffee deepens coffee enthusiasts’ understanding and appreciation for the positive impact each coffee bean can make when farmers thrive in their livelihoods. So, what inspires your sips? Join the movement, choose Fairtrade coffee, and be a force for good! Together, we can create a sustainable and equitable future for all. #knowthesource
