Living Wage is a hit. Listen to the interview!

Eosta's Living Wage mango's and avocado's are gaining traction in the market. Eight health food chains and retailers in Scandinavia, Germany, Austria and the Netherlands are selling these fair products. Nevertheless some people are still unfamiliar with the concept. In this interview with the #LivingWageLab, Eosta's quality manager Gert-Jan Lieffering explains why it matters: "In many countries a worker  is guaranteed a minimum wage, but that is not a Living Income. If you want to pay a Living Wage, you need to involve all parties within the value chain: the supplier, seller and consumer.".

A Living Wage is defined as a wage that supports a decent standard of living for the worker and her or his family. This includes not only basic needs, but also education, healthcare, and money to save for unexpected life events. Look on our Living Wage website for more information: http://www.livingwage.eu..

Limes

Moroccan limes provide breathing space in a tight organic lime market

Demand for organic fruit continues to grow, and organic limes are no exception. Their popularity is being driven partly by increasing demand for cocktails, mocktails and homemade lemonades, as well as their wider use in salads, curries and other dishes. Consumers are also increasingly choosing citrus grown without synthetic pesticides and without post-harvest fungicide treatment.

Kivinaki

Kivinaki ready for the new Organic Raingrown Oranges season

Ahead of the new organic orange season, our sourcing team visited Kivinaki in Peru. Over the past four years, we have built a successful export programme with this growers’ co-operative. During the visit, we worked together to prepare for the coming months.

Pineapple

Healthy soil makes organic pineapples more resilient

In Costa Rica, too, the effects of climate change are becoming increasingly apparent. Heavy rainfall, in particular, is making organic pineapple cultivation more challenging and requires growers to be adaptable.
