Topaz only sells fairtrade coffee and last year it sold 4,145,693 cups. The company believes it is all about getting the balance right between taste and value for Irish consumers and a fair price for farmers and producers in countries like Brazil and Nicaragua.

To mark the ongoing success of its sales for Fairtrade Fortnight, Paul Candon, marketing & corporate services director at Topaz was joined by Sammi Deakin from Sao Paulo in Brazil and Oscar González who works for a Nicaraguan co-operative which has 178 members, all of whom are small scale organic coffee farmers. Candon pointed out that while awareness of Fairtrade coffee and products is heightened during Fairtrade Fortnight (Feb 22 to March 7), the coffee is on sale in company-owned sites all year round.
