Fairtrade Officer
All certification customers must designate one key contact person, a Fairtrade Officer, within their organisation. The Fairtrade Officer will be the main point of contact for certification and audit issues. They will be responsible for ensuring the operator’s compliance with all certification requirements and for keeping the certification body updated with contact details and other relevant information.
