PLEASE NOTE
Those companies who are a member of the Fairtrade foundation and who support farmers and communities in developing nations by the farmers being given a premium to put back into the community are mentioned as such (Fairtrade).

Those companies who are listed as a member of Fair Flowers, Fair Plants are marked as such. This concern ensures fair social conditions for the worker and members have to adhere to certain environmental standards. It does not pay farmers a premium and growers, breeders and retailers come from the developing and developed world. It is not the same as Fairtrade.

MPS is a system of assessing the social and environmental conditions of a company, as well as ensuring the quality of the product.  Different certificates are earned to ensure each standard is being met, so you can be certified to meet quality, social, or environmental standards separately.

Some companies operate using different fair trading certification schemes, where they are mentioned as supplying fairly traded flowers.
