Fair Trade Tourism

Fair Trade Tourism is a non-profit that provides business support and certification services that empower the tourism sector to operate with responsible, Fair Trade Tourism principles embedded in their day-to-day tourism offering. This results in better places to live, work, and visit.
The FTT logo is The Mark of a Good Holiday, giving travellers who stay, play or volunteer with Fair Trade Tourism-Certified businesses confidence that their holiday is not only giving them unique, authentic and quality experiences, but also that it is benefiting local people and the planet.
Our ESG-aligned framework stands for fair wages and working conditions, fair purchasing and operations, equitable distribution of benefits, and respect for human rights, culture and the environment. Our certification programme is locally-developed, globally respected and aligned with best practice - an ideal support and implementation tool for tourism development.
