An article by Frank    3 Comments

TEAR Fund congratulates the team at All Good for the successful import of the first shipment of Fairtrade bananas into Aotearoa (NZ)! We know it has been a long journey full of hard work. We are completely behind this effort and wish it much success!

Watch out for New Zealand’s First Fairtrade Bananas!

It’s really happening, thanks to the many Kiwis who helped campaign and supported the move to finally get this country’s first shipment of All Good Fairtrade bananas.

Victory!

All Good Fairtrade bananas are exactly that, grown in El Guabo in Ecuador from farmers who will now benefit from a fair price, better working conditions and their children will be provided with food, clothing, an education and a healthier life. And the goodness doesn’t stop there, All Good Fairtrade bananas also taste great, are grown with organic fertilisers, plenty of care and no nasty chemicals. They’re truly New Zealand’s only straight bananas.

Look out for All Good Fairtrade bananas in your supermarkets and stores in Auckland. They are there now.

If your local doesn’t have them, don’t be shy, just ask them to stock up on the good stuff. If Kiwis keep the
demand going pretty soon we’ll be able supply the whole country, so make your banana an All Good one.
