Fair Trade

Here is a sign of the times…a poster for “Fair Trade”…as I understand “Fair Trade” it is a “for profit” organization set up to make sure the lowest paid workers in the supply chain receive a fair wage. My only question is that if it is a “for profit” organization what is the % of their income that is kept as profit (or dividends that they keep or pay out to their investors) as compared to the % of income given to the workers. That figure I would like to know….Anyone care to share this information with me?
