While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 145 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the company's vision and mission, highlighting their commitment to sustainability, quality products, and prioritizing people and the planet. Many reviewers appreciate the excellent range of fair trade and organic products, often describing them as delicious and of high quality. The delivery service is frequently commended for being prompt, efficient, and well-packaged, with items arriving safely and in good condition. Reviewers also value the company's strong relationships with producers and their efforts to share stories about the people behind the products. However, some customers experienced issues with packaging quality, leading to damaged items like ripped rice bags. A few other people also felt that the newsprint used for stuffing was too thin and not easily reusable, and one customer noted a shorter best-before date on teabags than advertised.

The order came very promptly to N Ireland. I have had problems ordering from another Fair Trade Company. Sometimes the order came to N Ireland only for it to be sent back to England again. This is the second time I have ordered from True Origin. Both times the order arrived promptly.

Purchase

Website is easy to use. I was called to advise of a short delay to the package shipping and was asked if that was OK. Then an email was sent to say that it had been dispatched on the date that I was advised it would.

Goods came well packaged and as ordered. Disappointed that the two boxes of Traidcraft tea have best before date of July which is very short dated and I can’t sell them on a stall in July at full price.
