US supermarket chain Giant Food, a unit of Dutch retail giant Ahold, has announced that it is to enter a partnership with fair trade certifier TransFair USA to offer five varieties of Fair Trade Certified coffee in its Giant and Super G stores.
The Fair Trade Certified organic coffee is to be marketed under the brand name Cafe JaVaNa gourmet coffee and is available in five blends – Breakfast Blend, French Roast, Colombian, Sumatran, and Sumatran Decaf.
Fair trade products guarantee farmers are paid a fair price. Almost 85% of Fair Trade Certified coffee sold in the US is also certified organic.
