Yesterday Rocko and I (Chelmer) popped along to our local Morrison's supermarket where we usually shop. We wanted to make sure that Fair trade fortnight was being properly advertised in the store and there was lots of attention drawn to fair trade products.
We got off to a good start, finding an advertising board in the shop entrance.
However, we did have to turn it round as we thought it important that shoppers saw it as they came in, not as they left (there was a different advert on the other side).
As we toured the shop, we did get increasingly disappointed. Although there were fair trade products on sale there was nothing to draw attention to them and no promotional material.
We will have to write to Mr Morrison as we don't think it is good enough. We hope you will do the same if your supermarket is not giving enough support to fair trade fortnight.
In the meantime, talking of Morrison's, Blue Bear is currently checking out Bearmobile 2 as she was filled up with petrol on the very day the fuel scare hit the news. Paws crossed everybody!
Lots of love Chelmer, Rocko and the gang xxx

You're in luck Bear. Our Traidcraft catalogue offers Traidcraft Chocolate hazelnut spread for sale. It's not such a mouth watering name as nutella but we're sure it tastes good, not that we've tried it yet. We've got a funny feeling we've seen a picture of you sampling some at Greenbelt?!
Love all at B.U. xxx
