The Best Fair Trade Clothing Brands of 2020 You Should Know About
By Nicole Gresen
It’s becoming more and more important to be mindful of how we shop. Fair trade clothing brands are designed to prevent and end poverty, harsh labor conditions and the destruction of our environment. Fair Trade ensures better working conditions for garment workers, transparency and accountability and use of sustainable resources to minimize carbon footprint. A report by the British Retail Consortium shows that "up to 90% of garment workers are paid below the National Minimum Wage”.
By shopping Fair Trade clothing brands, you are supporting the ethical treatment of garment workers and encouraging the increased use of sustainable resources.
