JOINT BODY MEETING

On 14th November Mr. Simon Banda from Zambia came to pay us a visit where among other things covered he had an audience with members of the Satemwa Joint Body.
JB members had a chance to express their expectations, concerns and what they feel FLO and the Producer should do in order to ensure the trade partnership is sustained.

On the other Simon also assured the JB members that FLO will try to assist where possible so that there is a smooth running of the requirements in order for the producer to sustain the certification.

He also had a chance of meeting with Smallholder Tea growers who are selling their tea to Satemwa. These small tea growers are also eager to be certified fair trade and Satemwa Estate is trying to assist them with any information they may require.
