What’s Green About GGP?

Go Green: Go Global

Environmental standards must be met for a product to be considered Fair Trade. As a member of the Fair Trade Federation (FTF), Global Goods Partners (GGP) adheres to Fair Trade standards for all products.


GGP works with CBO partners to achieve environmental consciousness by:

1) Children and youth in the US learn to practice environmental stewardship through lessons learned from GGP's online resources

2) GGP's innovative onlne school fundraising tool allows students in the US to fundraise for their schools while supporting environmentally friendly products and practices

3) Made-by-hand production processes mean products have a low carbon footprint

4) GGP provides product development training and support with an emphasis on sourcing sustainable and local raw materials; using recycled materials where possible; and producing products in an environmentally conscious manner

5) Many of the products available through GGP are made from easily renewable plant matter, use vegetable rather than chemical dyes, or are made from recycled materials that would otherwise end up in landfills. Where this is not yet the case, GGP is working with its partners to improve processes
