Monika and Ingo Herbst founded the first CONTIGO Fairtrade Shop in G\u00f6ttingen, Lower Saxony, in the summer of 1994. Since then, things have gone up rapidly and distribution quickly expanded to European worldshops. In Germany alone there are now more than 700 of them. The wholesale offer is also increasingly used by the independent committed specialised trade. CONTIGO undertakes, among other things, to remunerate producers from Asia, Africa and Latin America with fair prices and to pay a 50 percent deposit for each order so that the partners can purchase the materials and raw materials they need and earn a living. In return, the partners undertake, among other things, to create humane working conditions and to pay their employees adequate wages. \u201eWe are always in contact with our producers around the world and support them, for example, with financing issues or export formalities,\u201c Ingo Ingo Herbst, Managing Director at CONTIGO, reports.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
