FLO ANNUAL REPORT 2009-2010
23.06.2010 - The Fairtrade Labelling Organisations International (FLO e.V.) has published its Annual Report for 2009-2010. Here the introductory words of FLO's CEO Rob Cameron:
"Dear Fairtrade Partner,
I am delighted to be able to share with you FLO's achievements of 2009. 2009 was a challenging but rewarding year for FLO as we began putting our new global strategy into action. We strengthened our senior leadership team, created new business units and increased our focus on producer support, new markets, product development and global partnerships. We also began a major overhaul of Fairtrade Standards. What's more, in one of the most difficult economic years on record, consumers remained committed to purchasing Fairtrade products and sales grew in all countries. These are just few of our success stories included in the report. Also included for the first time in our report are some candid external perspectives on Fairtrade and FLO's work from some leading thinkers. But I'll stop here and encourage you to read on to find out more about FLO's contribution to sustainable development and poverty alleviation in 2009 and to take a look at the challenges ahead in 2010.
I hope you find our report an interesting and useful read and thank you for your continues support,
Rob Cameron"
