Our launch of the first FAIRTRADE prepared meals in the UK!
Chilli and Palava now with FAIRTRADE Mark
We are so pleased that we have achieved Fairtrade accreditation for two of our one-pot meals - New Mexican Chilli and African Palava. This makes us the first in the UK to get the Fairtrade Mark on prepared food (possibly the World!!!). Our Fairtrade beans are being cultivated by a farmer association in Inner Mongolia. We use a lovely dark red kidney bean for the Chilli and a speckled brown bean for the Palava.
Given that we were putting the Fairtrade mark on the sleeves. We thought it was a good time to take a look at re-freshing the sleeves. We tested out our ideas in store and in the work place. You will see we have flagged up more clearly on the front some key messages and hopefully made it easier to read on the back. Inside you will find lots to read and with colour photos too. Please let us know what you think. We are adding in some interesting beany facts inside our non Fairtrade recipes - if you have any bean facts you’d like to share then we’d love to receive them.
