Oké USA is a fair trade produce company that seeks to make international trade a little bit more “Oké.” Owned by Equal Exchange since 2009, Oké USA sources and sells bananas and avocados under the Equal Exchange brand, directly from farmers who are paid a fair price. That means higher wages, safer working conditions and a cleaner environment for farmers, workers, and their families. It is a truly revolutionary business structure in the highly integrated banana industry, where three companies dominate 80% of the market.
