Logistics with Purpose Classic: Fair Trade USA

Paul Rice fell in love with Nicaragua when he was there doing research for his senior thesis at Yale. But the more time he spent in the country, the more disillusioned he became with the traditional government-funded, top-down approach to economic development. He heard about the fair trade movement gaining steam in Europe and decided to try the model in Nicaragua, with great success.

In this classic episode of Logistics with Purpose, Paul joins host Enrique Alvarez to talk about how fair trade supply chains work and the kind of change they can user in for participating communities and families.
