Arthur & Henry are launching a Fairtrade and organic cotton range of shirts during Fairtrade Fortnight (23 February to 8 March).

Clare Lissaman of Arthur & Henry told me,
"We're hugely pleased about this; our co-founder Ranga has spent a lot of time with these particular farmers (a group in Odisha in India) and says it's really noticeable the difference being Fairtrade certified means to them. And they are some of the poorest in India".
I've described Arthur & Henry's sterling work with Indian farmers and producers before on the blog. To find out more and to buy these high quality but reasonably-priced shirts, go to the Arthur & Henry website.
Fairtrade certified cotton Canterbury polo (red and navy) £30 |
Fairtrade Oxford weave cotton long sleeve shirts (white and navy) £65 |
Seems like a nice line of clothing. The fact it's produced using organic ingredients is a plus. Nice, simple shirts.
