Congratulations to London on becoming the world’s largest Fairtrade City.

On Thursday 23 October 2008, the nation’s capital achieved Fairtrade City status.

Mayor of London Boris Johnson said: “Its super news that London is now officially the world’s largest Fairtrade city, with 20 Fairtrade Boroughs in the capital. It sends a clear message that Londoners want their products to be Fairtrade and to make a significant difference to the lives of farmers and workers in the developing world.”

Imporient is a Fairtrade certified tea company based in Forest Hill and Herne Hill, London. To continue the spread of Fairtrade across the capital and nationwide give us a try and benefit from drinking the best tasting ethically sourced tea available. We are also members of the Ethical Tea Partnership and co-founders of The Point Foundation.
