Today London will become the world's largest Fairtrade City. Almost 1,000 retailers and 600 catering outlets have signed up to stock fairtrade certified goods.
London is the 400th place in Britain to be awarded the status by the Fairtrade Foundation.
The Metro was happy to report that Boris Johnson said it was 'super news'.

It is great to know that people are sticking to their values despite talk of recession in the news. Sales of Fairtrade increased by 55% over the summer - word is obviously spreading about the message and the benefits these certifications offer to producers worldwide - and, of course, that it is often the highest quality product...
Having been a supporter of Fairtrade for years it is really exciting to see them becoming more the norm in households across the UK.
