Fairtrade and Ethical Sourcing

Fairtrade Movement and Ethical Sourcing

In today's global market there is more awareness of how we produce and sell goods. Also due to higher demand there is a need for cleaner and ethically sourced products. This encourages consumers to pay more attention to the products they buy and keeps companies monitored in order to be fair, just, and safe with their production. This important shift in consciousness has brought attention to products we enjoy daily, like tea. NEMI Teas stands out from the rest because of the difference we choose to make when producing and selling our teas. NEMI Teas exemplifies a commitment to Fairtrade and ethical sourcing. 


To start off, Fairtrade is more than just a certification; it's a movement that aims to ensure individuals have fair wages, sustainable livelihood, and decent working conditions. Ethical sourcing goes hand in hand with Fairtrade, emphasizing the importance of responsible supply chains that have respect for both the planet and people. Specifically, for NEMI Teas, we focus on adhering to the standards to protect these rights for workers, promote sustainable farming practices, and foster economic empowerment in their communities. By choosing tea that is ethically sourced and Fairtrade, consumers can support these ideologies and the planet. 


From the beginning NEMI Teas has been dedicated to providing high-quality tea while ensuring that the people behind its production are treated with fairness and respect. NEMI Teas sources its tea from small-scale farmers who benefit from Fairtrade Premiums, which are invested back into their communities for social, economic, and environmental development. NEMI Teas strives for transparency and believes that consumers should have every right to know where our tea is coming from and how it is produced. This transparency with you all builds trust and ensures individuals on our intentions and commitment to ethical practices.


Fairtrade and ethical sourcing helps build resilient communities, maintain good education, and good healthcare for all people. For consumers, enjoying a delicious cup of NEMI tea means more than just a refreshing beverage; it means participating and joining our mission in maintaining a clean planet and promoting fairness and sustainability. Taking it a step further NEMI Teas creates opportunities for refugees in the UK, by putting those who connect with us into a 10 week training programme in order to learn various hospitality skills to prepare them for the workforce. This initiative not only supports the local community but also enriches the NEMI Teas team with diverse perspectives and experiences. 


Choosing brands like NEMI Teas that prioritize fair-trade and ethical sourcing has far-reaching impacts. It supports economic fairness, promotes environmental sustainability, and fosters social responsibility. Every cup of NEMI Tea you enjoy is a step towards a more just and sustainable world.
