Well, no sooner does the curtain come down on Greenbelt, than its time to erect a few tent poles just outside Dublin for this week's Electric Picnic. Amnesty International are just about to re-open their offices in Dublin, with a Fairtrade Cafe on the premises, and at the festival they will be running a 24 hour a day bingo session. Prizes every half an hour, and Fairtrade coffee and Wish4 muffins and snacks to go with them. The organisers are keen to promote Fairtrade and every year the majority of traders support this, and that's good news.
This week also sees the launch by DBC Foodservice in UK of the new Wish4 Fairtrade muffins and snack bars. Good news for lots of catering outlets across the land. Falmouth University is one group we know will be pleased about that.
We also continue to develop direct fairtrade supplier relationships a particualr African company in the biscuit and confectionery business. The biscuits are a bit dry all right, but the boiled sweets and toffees are looking good.
