Continuing its commitment to “Green,” Wholesome Sweeteners will announce at the Natural Products Expo East this September that its line of organic sweeteners will be the first U.S. Fair Trade Certified sugars on the market, guaranteeing a better deal for sugar cane farmers in the developing world.
Fair Trade certification ensures that sugar cane farmers receive a fair price for their harvest and that farmers and their families receive a better income for their hard work. On Fair Trade farms, producers must adhere to strict standards regarding the use and handling of pesticides, the protection of natural waters, virgin forest and other ecosystems of high ecological value, and the management of erosion and waste.
Wholesome Sweeteners offers a line of certified organic sugars, all produced from sugar cane, in a variety of formats including crystals, quick-dissolving granules, liquids and powders.
