Brandon Triple Crowned Fair Trade Town of the Year

The Fair Trade Steering Committee had another successful year bringing awareness to the community on what fair trade is and what products are available in Brandon. In late February at the National Fair Trade Conference, Fair Trade Canada awarded the City of Brandon "2016 Fair Trade Town of the Year". This marks the third time Brandon has received this national accolade. Grace Mennonite Church here in Brandon received Fair Trade Faith Group of the Year, the church just received their designation in 2016. This recognition is well deserved as the committee has been very active promoting fair trade to the community. Congratulations to all!
