The rationale behind the existence of Fair Trade rests in marginalized producers' problems in accessing markets because of capital, capabilities & capacity failures and in their difficulty in getting their rights respected while engaging in trading activities, and while existing as marginalized individuals and/or groups in developing and/or emerging economies. Thus, it is in the core mission of Fair Trade to work as much on the business side of the coin, as it is to tackle the socio-economic condition of marginalized producers, as addressing both contributes to lessening the latter's propensity to be further marginalized.
