There is a fair trade boil-over brewing around the entry of corporate giants into the fair trade market place. The latest entry is chocolate giant Cadbury. Dunkin’ Donuts, Starbucks, McDonalds and Nestle’s entry into fair trade have stired the pot as well. Cadbury’s deal to certify their Dairy Milk bars as fair trade continues to raise complicated questions about fair trade and who is a fair trader. A slope that can be made slippery to be sure, and one with an outcome sure to affect the lives and wallets of many.
