Tea Fair: Rankin's Choice Organic Teas in Seattle is first U.S. company to use fair trade tea. - Puget Sound Business Journal (11/05)
Correction:
The last line of this article quotes Blake Rankin as saying: "All of India, Sir Lanka, South Africa, and 95 percent of China, is free trade." The quote should read: "All the tea we purchase in India, Sri Lanka, South Africa, and 95 percent of China, is Fair Trade Certified. Fair Trade and Free trade are of course not interchangeable, and certainly the countries, or the tea industries of those countries, are not all fair trade. In the world of tea, fair trade still represents less than 1% of the industry."
