First Bale of Organic Fairtrade Cotton from UNPCB

On March 24th 2019, the first bale of organic fairtrade cotton from UNPCB of the season 2018/19 has been ginned in Koudougou, Burkina Faso. The expected production will be 400 tons of fiber. The cotton should be available for sale within the next weeks. Actually the partners of the CCBE in Mali, Burkina Faso, Benin and Senegal are planning the next season. The idea is, to double the production for next season and to identify commercial partners, that get engaged in sourcing more and more organic & fairtrade cotton from West Africa.
