Equal Exchange

Equal Exchange is a for-profit Fairtrade worker-owned, cooperative headquartered in West Bridgewater, Massachusetts. Equal Exchange distributes organic, gourmet coffee, tea, sugar, bananas, avocados, cocoa, and chocolate bars produced by farmer cooperatives in Latin America, Africa and Asia. Founded in 1986, it is the oldest and largest Fair Trade coffee company in the United States. The highest paid employee of Equal Exchange may not make more than four times what the lowest paid employee receives.〔(Equal Exchange: About Our Co-op )〕
Equal Exchange is currently collaborating with cranberry, pecan, and almond farmers in the United States.
==History==
Equal Exchange was founded in 1986 by Rink Dickinson, Jonathan Rosenthal and Michael Rozyne. Before founding Equal Exchange, Dickinson, Rosenthal and Rozyne were managers at a food cooperative in New England and were actively involved in American food industry reform. For three years prior to Equal Exchange's birth, the three founders met once weekly to discuss how global food trade could be changed to increase incomes and stabilize economic situations of farmers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://equalexchange.coop/story )〕 The meetings resulted in the development of an alternative trade model that utilized direct trade, established long term contracts, and offered higher-than-market prices to small coffee farmers. This differs from the traditional trade model, in which buyers go through a series of middlemen to purchase coffee beans from plantation farmers.
