Talking FairTrade in an Age of Inflation and the EV Hunger Games

Tradesplaining Episode 58: Fairtrade in an Age of Regulation and The Bow Tax

In the 58th episode of the Tradesplaining podcast, hosts Rob and Ardian explore international trade, business, and expat life. They discuss U.S. chip restrictions affecting markets for graphics chip manufacturer NVIDIA, the relevance of Fairtrade in an era of regulation, and the impact of inflation on consumers.

Special guest Fabian Waldemeyer of Fairtrade Max Havelaar shares insights on Fairtrade's role in the current era, how it ensures the fairness of their sourcing, and their partnerships with corporates. He speaks about Fairtrade's impact including price and income stability, strengthening of democratic structures, and capacity building in smallholder setups. Waldmeier believes that with new regulations, Fairtrade is as relevant as before if not more.

The episode also features a segment on the 'vibe shift' touching on the emerging trend of the 'bow tax' in fashion and customer queues for the new Swatch-Blanca watch collaboration. Lastly, Switzerland's 'Animal of the Year', the Polecat, gets a special mention.
