They cultivate

Did you know that many of the products we consume are linked to different forms of child labour?

The people who produce the coffee, cocoa and sugar we buy live in Africa, Asia, Central America and South America.

In many of the countries where they live, human rights are not fully respected, women are not allowed to own land, and child labour is systemic.

Many of the products we consume help perpetuate this situation.

AlterNativa3 offers a solution: ethical alternatives for the products you use every day.

Who grows our products?

Farmers who understand the value of their work and choose to stand up for their rights. Skilled professionals and entrepreneurs: they deliver the highest quality, comply with all regulations and pay their taxes.

They are not idealists. They know that trade shapes our world, our society and the way we relate to one another. That is why they trust you and me to recognise the power we hold as consumers.

What is a cooperative?

It is a group of farmers: the platform they have created allows them to sell their produce at a fair price, defend their rights and improve living conditions in their communities.

AlterNativa3 only works with cooperatives that offer decent working conditions, empower women and eradicate child labour. We create a long-term relationship to contribute to their development.

Where does my money go?

When you buy an item, everyone involved in its production receives a fair payment for their work. Not only in the country of origin, but also here in Spain. We are all equal.

Moreover, AlterNativa3 is not a company, but a cooperative. In other words, the profit is reinvested in R&D for more sustainable packaging, elimination of plastics, training, clean energy...

All AlterNativa3 does is buy raw materials?

No. We also improve the lives of producers through international cooperation projects.
For example, more than 100 young people have received higher education through a scholarship programme.
They now work in cooperatives, defend their rights and contribute to the development of their community.

What can I do?

Support companies that do fair trade.
With every purchase you create a better world. Do you want to go to the online shop?
