Who are we?>>Fair Trade Lebanon's Mission

Lebanese cuisine is considered excellent, at the four corners of the world; Lebanese diaspora thoroughly commits itself and fits right into all countries. But often enough, emigrants miss their homeland’s sun and grandma’s recipes.

Besides, Lebanese villages abound of culinary treasures that might disappear. As a result of war, but also rural exodus, recipes get lost, and the culinary traditions as well. Because of the economic situation, people, especially youngsters, are leaving their own towns and then the country.

Whereas…if they believe in it, they can revive the unique lands that they possess.

• FAIR TRADE LEBANON is sure about it. FAIR TRADE LEBANON wants to identify the Lebanese regional produces; FAIR TRADE LEBANON wants to contribute to informing all about the richness and the uniqueness of this Soil.
• FAIR TRADE LEBANON wants to make it possible for everyone –especially for the Lebanese diaspora- to purchase an exceptional product that reminds them of the country, the village, the sun and the Mediterranean.
  
• FAIR TRADE LEBANON wants to offer a viable economic model to the farmers and the women’s cooperatives in the distant regions.
  
• FAIR TRADE LEBANON wants to fight against desertification, rural exodus, poverty, and mostly, against despair.
  
• FAIR TRADE LEBANON wants to introduce to the whole world those men and women who struggle hard to promote their ancestral skills, their story.

FAIR TRADE LEBANON wants the Lebanese regional specialities to be everyone’s pride.
