Fair Trade Lebanon : 10 years of commitment

For over 10 years now, Fair Trade Lebanon has been passionately committed to supporting and empowering local Lebanese producers located in the most disadvantaged areas of the country.

We have proven that Fair Trade was indeed a powerful tool to lift people out of poverty and allow them to find a place in the international trading system.
From 4 employees in 2006 to 30 proud team members in 2016. From 6 shy food-processing cooperatives to 32 well-trained, reinforced production units and a total of 850 direct beneficiaries.
We have come a long way in this amazing journey…here are some highlights of our achievements.

Thank you all for being part of this honorable adventure. 

Depuis plus de 10 ans maintenant, Fair Trade Lebanon s’est passionnément engagé à soutenir et renforcer les producteurs libanais situés dans les zones les plus défavorisées du pays.

Nous avons prouvé que le commerce équitable était en effet un outil puissant pour sortir les gens de la pauvreté et leur permettre de se forger une place dans le système commercial international.

FTL est passé de 4 employés en 2006 à 30 membres fiers de faire partie de l’équipe en 2016, de 6 timides coopératives de transformation alimentaire à 32 unités de production bien formées et renforcées avec un total de 850 bénéficiaires directs.

Nous avons parcouru un long chemin dans ce merveilleux parcours...voici quelques faits marquants de nos exploits.

Merci à vous tous d'avoir participé à cette honorable aventure.
