Recently in Ces 440 we have been discussing the concept of Fair Trade around the world. South Africa is also partaking in this process and is hoping it will help promote social and economic development among the beneficiaries throughout the country. In doing so products produced in this area under fair trade regulations will be labeled in a manner so the final consumer will be assured this process was followed. Hopefully this will create a market for these products in this area and will help many farmers and laborers who were left out of the main portion of profits made off the very products they produced. Many of the products produced here under these regulations are agricultural such as oranges. With regulations over commodities traded globally such as these it is South Africa’s hope that it will boost their economy and the way of life for many throughout the country.
