Fairtrade Foundation x Portsmouth100
Portsmouth City Council is encouraging local businesses to take part in a new Fairtrade initiative celebrating the city’s centenary year. As part of Portsmouth100, the Portsmouth Fairtrade Forum is aiming to highlight 100 local businesses that actively support Fairtrade by selling or serving at least two Fairtrade items.
Portsmouth is proud to hold Fairtrade Community status, and the council continues to support efforts that champion ethical, sustainable choices across the city.
The Portsmouth100 campaign offers a simple way for cafes, restaurants, retailers and service providers of all sizes to show their commitment to Fairtrade, whether they already offer Fairtrade tea, coffee, sugar, chocolate, clothing or crafts, or are looking to introduce new Fairtrade-certified options.
Participating businesses will receive a Portsmouth100 Fairtrade certificate and a window sticker to display throughout the centenary year, showcasing their support to customers, visitors and the wider community.
