Justice and Peace: Fairtrade Chocolate – For a number of years it has been possible to buy Fairtrade chocolate from specialist suppliers and shops. However, it is becoming easier to choose Fairtrade as supermarkets and high street shops are also now selling Fairtrade chocolate made by major manufacturers such as Cadburys, Nestle and the Co-operative, amongst others – look out for the Fairtrade mark. Buying Fairtrade chocolate not only gives a fair deal to cocoa producers but also ensures we do not unwittingly support the inappropriate use of child labour in cocoa production in West Africa.
