CERTIFIED BANANA THAT GUARANTEES ITS QUALITY
Fair trade banana growers in Colombia refers to the practice of buying and selling bananas in an ethical and responsible manner. This includes ensuring that banana farmers receive a fair price for their products, that their labor rights are respected, and that sustainable development is promoted in their communities.
An example is the association of banana producers «ASOCOOMAG», a second degree organization, which groups first degree banana cooperatives and manages the provision of services for their bases and establishes spaces for analysis and promotion of the banana sector at the national and international level.
Fair trade bananas come from farmers in Colombia who have been certified to produce ethically in a sustainable agriculture system. Small producers are motivated to invest in better agricultural practices if they receive a fair price for their work, having a differential price guarantees that they earn a decent living and contributes to improving their livelihoods.

ASOCOOMAG works to promote fair trade and sustainable development in their communities. It focuses on improving the quality of life of its members through the implementation of sustainable practices in banana production and the promotion of gender equality and the participation of women in the agricultural sector.
