Equal Exchange
"Fair-trade tea, worker-owned."
Equal Exchange is a worker-owned co-op founded in 1986 in West Bridgewater, Massachusetts as a Fair Trade pioneer for coffee — and added tea in 2002. All Equal Exchange teas are sourced from small-farmer cooperatives, with profits returning to the growers themselves. The brand is the standard fair-trade tea at progressive churches and food co-ops.
