And Albert Foundation & trading roots
The founder David Murden has been
working for almost fifteen years to realise his vision of creating long term
ethical trade with villages in the developing world. Fifteen years retail experience has now
culminated in the formation of the "And Albert Foundation" with its ethical
label "Trading Roots" as a charitable trust.
How do they operate ?
Trading Roots projects provide a link to the people of villages in the poorest, and often remote parts of the earth, with a programme of development which doesn't patronise them with a one sided charitable handout or extinguish their cultural skills with exploitative commercialism.
