The producer is Sidepool Enterprise, a fair trade organization whose purpose is to help refugees in Bangladesh. When the War of Independence broke out between Bangladesh and Pakistan in the 1970s, more than one million refugees who lost their homes flooded into the Bianchi camp. The Mennonite Central Committee (MCC), a non-profit organization that provides food and relief to refugee camps, recognized the need for local employment and told 150 women how to sew wire mesh and jute bags. As a result, in 1976, a small workshop focusing on bags, Sidepool Enterprise, and Eastern Screen Printers, which engaged in screen printing, were born. Currently, these two groups operate independently of MCC.
People Tree, a Japanese fair trade group, has been cooperating with Sidepool Enterprise since 1993 and is now Sidepool Enterprises' largest trading partner. According to People Tree's stable business plan, most of the annual profits will be returned to producers, and producers will also be able to obtain loans at low interest rates and obtain legal aid and insurance.
Joshna, who was abandoned by her husband 10 years ago, started working at Sidepool Enterprise.
What changes has fair trade brought about?
Joshna said, "The income of working as a maid is only about half of working in Sidepool Enterprise. There is no other place to work in this area. Sidepool Enterprise respects me and allows me to work from home. I can replace the roof of the house with a monthly salary of five months. In addition. , I can also send my niece to school."
