    If you think about it, Cadburys is a very famous brand and to get ALL Cadburys chocolate to be fair-trade will spread more kindness around the world and make a bigger and better difference.

    I think not all food should be Fairtrade because some people might not have enough money to buy the food they want and so they won’t get that many things. It would effect the buyer because it would stress them really bad. You could persuade them by saying that you will get the same amount of money as every one else.

  3. callum says:

    no,not all products should be fairtrade as people with less money won’t have enough food because of the price.
    caburys should sell more fairtrade as it will help the farming community earn a fair amount of money.

  4. Elise TD says:

    No. I think this because if EVERYTHING was Fairtrade then Fairtrade technically wouldn’t exist. Also It would be unfair on people who are poor or don’t like Fairtrade foods and prefer things that are Rainforest Approved (Galaxy chocolate bars and such) or not Fairtrade or Rainforest Approved.

  5. sophie says:

    Q1.No because the prices of products will increase double their price.

  6. Kathryn C says:

    No because if everything is Fairtrade then it would be normal for everyone.

  7. Emily says:

    I think that not all products should be Fairtrade because it would mean Fairtrade workers would have to work more. I think it would affect the buyer because they would be happy that not all products are made by Fairtrade because not everyone likes Fairtrade products

      Why do you think people don’t like Fairtrade products?

      • kathryn chadburn says:

        I think they wont like fairtrade products because if a certain chocolate bar was fairtrade and they didn’t have enough money they couldn’t get it.

  8. kennedy.sloan says:

    I think not all things should be Fairtrade because everything will be expensive

  9. alisha.seeby says:

    No because some people do not like fair trade products as people do not have enough money to buy them.

  10. rainers.petersons says:

    I don’t think all products should be fair trade because some people who haven’t got a lot of money. The buyer needs to pay more money. People need more money so that’s why you need to make more fair trade chocolate so the maker gets more money.

  11. Ben coley says:

    I think not all products should fair trade because this will effect the buyer because if you were poor you will not get any food. You could persuade Cadbury to make there chocolate fair trade by telling them that farmers that are poor will get more money

    • Emily says:

      I agree with Ben because Cadbury already sell some Fairtrade chocolate so why can’t they sell all their chocolate as Fairtrade?

  12. sophie says:

    Q2.It affects the buyer by money loss which means the buyer loses the money they have got.

  13. Olivia says:

    No I dont think all products should be fair trade because fair trade items are much more expencive than un fair trade things so some people might not have enough money to buy expencive things.
    I would persuade Cadbury’s by telling them its helping farmers around the world to get the money they deserve.

  14. sophie says:

    Q2.It affects the buyer by money loss.

  15. alisha.seeby says:

    NO BECAUSE NOT EVERY ONE LIKEs FAIR
    TRADE PRODUCTs PLUS FAIR TRADE PRODUCTS ARE TOO EXPENSIVE

    • Richard Smith says:

      Some people would say they are better quality and therefore can be sold at a higher price.

  16. sophie says:

    Q3.Write a letter to the companie saying it would be a better way to make money

  17. sophie says:

    I agree with emily

  18. sophie says:

    I agree with emily.

  19. Catherine says:

    Cadburys should make all their chocolate Fairtrade.

  20. alisha.seeby says:

    BECAUSE WHEN WE DID THE TEST WE HAD 2 CHOCOLATE THE FIRST ONE WAS NORMAL AND THE SECOND ONE WAS FAIR
    TRADE WE HAD TO PICK WHAT ONE WAS NORMEL AND WHAT ONE WAS FAIR TRADE. THERE WAS A LOT FOR NORMAL AND NOT ALOT FOR FAIR TRADE. I PICKED THE NORMAL ONE IN THE END.
