What is Fairtrade NAPP
Building a stronger, sustainable and resilient network of Fairtrade Producers across Asia and the Pacific region!
Fairtrade Network of Asia and Pacific Producers ( Fairtrade NAPP) is a regional network of Fairtrade Labelling Organizations (FLO) representing Fairtrade-certified producers across Asia and the Pacific region. It is one of the three Fairtrade Producer Networks within the global Fairtrade system, that directly with small-scale farmers, workers, and producer organizations to ensure they benefit from fairtrade practices, improve their livelihoods, and have a voice in international trade.
Producer Networks are regional associations that Fairtrade-certified producer organizations may voluntarily join. They represent small-scale farmers, plantation workers, and other producer stakeholders, playing a vital role in the governance of Fairtrade International.
At Fairtrade NAPP, we are committed to supporting and securing better trade opportunities for Fairtrade-certified producer organizations throughout the Asia-Pacific region. Producers are our partners and hold a 50% ownership stake in the Fairtrade system, ensuring they have an equal say in all decisions that impact their livelihoods and communities. As a dedicated Producer Network, Fairtrade NAPP amplifies the voices of the producers, ensuring that their interests are at the heart of the decision-making process within the Fairtrade system.
By offering an alternative approach to trade Fairtrade NAPP supports producers in securing better markets, contributing to greater sustainable development in the Asia and Pacific region
The Constitution of Fairtrade Network of Asia and Pacific Producers Ltd (FT-NAPP) was established in 2014 as a Producer Network (PN) member of Fairtrade International (FI).
