Traidcraft Fair Trade Mixed Fruit (Raisins, Sultanas, Currants, and Fruit Peel)
Experience the unique blend of Traidcraft Fair Trade Mixed Fruit, consisting of raisins, sultanas, currants, and fruit peel. This delightful mix is perfect for creating traditional seasonal baked goods and adding a burst of flavor to your recipes. The raisins and sultanas used in this blend are sourced from the Orange River region of South Africa, an area near the Kalahari Desert characterized by its isolation and dry climate.
For many farmers in this region, growing grapes and drying them to produce raisins and sultanas provides a reliable source of income. However, this endeavor presents challenges, particularly for small farmers who require training and financial assistance to embark on this three-year journey before their first crop. Traidcraft's engagement with these farmers through the sales of raisins and sultanas, in collaboration with SAD Vine Fruit (PTY) Ltd, supports their efforts and contributes to a better future for these communities.
Traidcraft, a prominent supplier of fair trade food and organic products in the UK, is committed to working directly with farmers and suppliers from around the world. Their mission is to offer products that not only taste good but also contribute to positive change, aligning with their belief in "fighting poverty through trade."
