Smarter Waste Management Solutions

We believe that every purchase has the power to spark real change. By choosing to purchase Tate & Lyle Fairtrade sugar through us, our members are supporting a product backed by over 15 years of investment in responsible sourcing and sustainability with Fairtrade. Tate & Lyle and Fairtrade continue to work together to source more responsibly. This is more than just sugar; farmers invest the Fairtrade Premium they earn in projects they choose, supporting their communities, opportunities for families, and a commitment to more sustainable farming practices.
Where does the Fairtrade Premium go?
When our members select Tate & Lyle’s Fairtrade sugar, they are supporting thousands of small-scale farmers in places like Belize and Eswatini. That choice works with farmers to invest Fairtrade Premium funds into projects that matter most to them – access to education, healthcare for the underserved, and support for more sustainable farming practices. Every purchase supports Fairtrade practices and contributes to collaborating with farming communities at the source.
You can see the difference in lives like David’s. In rural Belize, where basic healthcare is often out of reach, the Fairtrade Premium funds mobile clinics that bring doctors to the community. Two-year-old David was diagnosed with profound hearing loss, something his family couldn’t have discovered or treated without Fairtrade’s support. Hearing aids opened a world of learning and friendship for him, proving just how far your choice can go.
