5. Benefits of Fair Trade to Tourism Enterprises
Informed customers who feel satisfied that their money is benefiting the right people and that they are not destroying what they have to come to love:no more feeling guilty, no more feeling uncomfortable when asked for donations, no more feeling hassled by vendors, or begging children, no more feeling ‘ripped off’ or cheated.
A high quality tourism product:
Tourism investors who care about the people and environment in destinations are doing themselves a favour by nurturing and protecting the very product they are using for making a profit.
A good reputation attracting increased consumer trust:
In times of fierce competition and little product differentiation, the reputation is often all a company has to attract customers and gain their repeat business.
