NEWS FROM THE FAIR TRADE NETWORK.

Thanks to promotion of the Electronic Commerce Network in fairs, workshops, and conferences, other producers have become interested in joining the network.

The Network was also promoted in Europe  from  June 13 - July 7 when delegates from Camari and the producers groups visited many fair trade organizations in Spain, Belgium, France, Italy and Germany. This was an opportunity to promote the products, discuss the electronic commerce system and analyze Ecuadorian products. Many organizations expressed interest in making future orders.

During  July  5-6 the second gathering of the wider network for electronic commerce and  fair trade was held in Quito. Producers, consumers, sales people, development organizations and  representatives from local government participated in discussions concerning the creation of the network, and  socioeconomic alternatives for lower income groups. One hundred and sixty delegates participated in this gathering, including the producer groups from the electronic commerce network project.

The Specials section of the Camari home page has been updated with new craft products, the new presentation and packing of agricultural products and Christmas items. Please take a look !
