International Trade & Development - Paisley, Scotland, United Kingdom
JTS is a fair trade organisation, set up to facilitate the import and distribution of fairly traded products to the UK. JTS is wholly owned by The Balmore Trust, a charitable trust registered in Scotland (Scottish Charity SC008930).JTS empowers and educates producers and consumers, through the fair purchasing and sale of delicious food products from the developing world. We seek to provide sustainable incomes for small holder farmers. We do this by• building a strong UK based business that clearly embodies our values and focusses on fair & fine foods• working particularly with producers who are not yet Fairtrade certified providing them with market opportunities and support in development • promoting understanding through educational work • working in partnership with civil society groups and the fair trade and development movementsWe import rice from Malawi; jams, chutneys, marmalades and sauces from Swaziland; tomato-based sauces from Kenya; and coconut milk from Sri Lanka. We also have a new range of spice grinders from South Africa.JTS has challenged schools, as well as churches, colleges and other community groups and organisations, to sell 90kg of rice – the amount of rice sold that would enable a Malawian farmer to pay for a year's basic secondary education for one child. If you or anyone you know would be up for this challenge, more information can be found on our website or you can call us or email us (details below), with your questions.
