ONE organic Banana :

Organic agriculture improves soil fertility; chemicals such as pesticides or artificial nitrogen fertilizers are not used, and this also ensures higher levels of nutrients and anti-oxidants.

ONE Banana grows its organic production on 100% organic farm in Peru, where bananas are cultivated to meet the highest international standards guaranteeing product excellence. "Our organic products can be easily identified by our characteristic ONE BANANA label in a vibrant purple color," said Adams.

FAIRTRADE standard :

The Fairtrade standard aims to eliminate poverty through community development and the promotion of a fair price for commodities so that farmers and workers in developing countries achieve a decent income for the work done.

Just like ONE Banana, the FAIRTRADE standard is aligned to the Sustainable Development Goals , this guarantees the company is respecting the legal framework in each of the countries where it operates promoting compliance beyond what is expected from the brand.
