With the fair trade label you know when you buy your chocolate that this chocolate bar or any other chocolate product, that the ones that harvest the so called cocoa pods that the get a good work condition and entirely slave labour
free. The fair trade chocolate factory (don't know what the name is) make sure that even the smallest cocoa farm get some of its harvest sold. In the fair trade there are a minimum pay out for the farmers so even when the stocks are falling the farmers get there share of the money and don't get ripped off.
