About Fair & Bio

We roast our fair trade coffee in Kostelec nad Labem in Central Bohemia.

We were able to start the roastery in 2013 thanks to a subsidy to support the employment of the disadvantaged from EU funds (Operational Program Human Resources and Employment - OPHRE). In 2015, support from the Investment Operational Program - IOP followed, thanks to which we were able to make investments.

We currently employ mentally handicapped workers - clients of our partner organization Vyšší Hrádek p.s.s. (social service provider) and a person with a severe disability. Working in a roastery means several benefits for them at once: financial income, meaningful self-realization, interpersonal contacts, improvement of their own capacities and education.

The cooperative form of enterprise means transparent and democratic decision-making as well as the support of social cohesion and the initiative of individuals. Cooperatives are also a continuation of the natural form of fair trade business - most farmers in developing countries involved in fair trade are currently organized in cooperatives. The self-help economic structure makes a significant contribution to sustainable development.
