		CERTIFICATION MARK >> One International Image
	ENG \| ESP HOME SITEMAP


	After several years of work, FLO International has succeeded in preparing the road for its member organisations, the National Initiatives to introduce the International Fairtrade Certification Mark on the market. The National Initiatives and FLO have recognised the need for a single logo for a long while, mainly for two reasons: it increases clarity for consumers and it makes cross-border trade easier. Therefore FLO has started the process of harmo-nising the different Labels into one International Image by proposing the use of this new developed Certification Mark to countries that wish it to step over to a common approach. The new mark is now available and it will be replacing existing labels at different speeds (as the markets demand) in different countries. FLO could not have started the harmonisation process of the Labels without the financial support from the European Commission, DG Employment and Social Affairs. FLO would like to thank the European Commission for its support.
