Fair trade honeys
Our Cooperative and our honeys have been certified French fair trade by Agri-Éthique France since 2020. A pioneer in local fair trade, this label certifies that our producers are paid a fair, living wage, set democratically by our beekeepers.
What does the fair trade label guarantee?
Guaranteeing a fair wage for beekeepers
Agri-Éthique guarantees fair compensation for beekeepers by paying for honey production at its true value.
Through a secured price over a 5 year contractual period, we provide visibility, security, and peace of mind to our beekeepers.
Preserving local employment
Setting raw material prices across all supply chain partners gives every actor the confidence to invest and stabilize local jobs, directly or indirectly.
Acting for the environment and animal welfare
We take action for the environment and animal welfare by supporting our beekeepers in adopting innovative agricultural practices.
« For us, the Agri-Éthique French fair trade certification is a way to guarantee consumers that our work is serious and respectful of both producers and consumers. Together, we are stronger to face existing misconceptions about honey. »
Vincent, beekeeper Les Compagnons du Miel, in the Doubs region.
