Fair Trade Wales is an organisation based in the United Kingdom that exists to grow the Fair Trade movement in Wales.[1] It is funded by the Welsh Assembly Government.[2] In June 2008 it led Wales to become the world's first Fair Trade Nation[3] and as of 2010 is working towards the second phase of Fair Trade Nation targets.[4]
The organisation stages events during the annual Fairtrade Fortnight to raise awareness of Fairtrade in Wales.[5]
