Fair trade products are distributed in Germany via more than 800 specialist shops (so-called "world shops") and through conventional retail outlets. Goods sold in the world shops are all fairly traded. In conventional retail outlets, fair trade labelling helps the consumer to identify fairly traded products. These days, fair trade products can be found in Germany on the shelves of some 30,000 supermarkets as well as in many health food shops, organic supermarkets and shops, department stores and chemist’s shops, or can be purchased by mail order or online. Fair trade products are also available in more than 15,000 cafés and restaurants and other establishments serving food.
